I was thinking i wasted my money on the LSR i got from Jeff, that's out in the garage. It's good to know i'm safer with it.

quick question off topic,
what size wheel would you motox guys buy? The stockerers on my disassembled moto are bent bad.
Are they 8x8? i'm thinking of some ITP beadlocks.

I would buy Hiper's. I know that they are expensive, but they are the best. 8X8's for MX. They also have the beadlock on the inner's as well as outer's.

So do these sprocket hubs only fail if the axle nut is not kept tight i thought i read that somewhere is that true or no

I asked them the same thing the other day. Their response was 'no'. It's pretty much it's a freebie when you buy their axle. Now there $220 sprocket hub may be a diffrent issue. It IS NOT the same one that come with the axle.

Keeping the axle tight might help a little but not much.I stripped on on my 250r (lonestar also) the aluminum splines on the hub just cant take the abuse for long.
