hey there i have been wanting to get into jumping but what sort of upgrades are you guys doing to your bikes for jumping? a spec list would be tops. i have a 150 nitrous so iknow it will need a bit of work. some first upgrades advice would be handy. ive know what people are doing to there race bikes but not the fmx bikes. thanks for checking this out
 
strengthen frame (you could do)
better rear shock (elka dnm etc)
better front forks (marzocchi, gpx(black label)
better handle bars (pro taper, renthal)
bash plate (protect underneath)
fold back levers (so they don't break during a crash)
better rims *not that important* (excel,billet)
high tensile Axel (more strength)
grip seat (stop your ass from sliding XD)


all these are what id do to a bike to jump
but as i say if you don't know how to jump these will most likely be pointless upgrades
unless your ready to have a crack at it :)
 
sorry for the double post and when your ready for hard core tricks cut the rear side shrouds so you can grab them to do something like a super man or some other shiz

but that will be a while
 
thanks for the help at lest now i have a guide line. with the gpx black label i noticed on dhz that the one pair comes with more travel so i guss that pair would be better for jumping?
 
so i just measure my shock that i have now before i order?
