    just depends on whether or not you want to cut your housings.

    im partial to the mini h1s because theyre the easiest to do for the best improvement

    im thoroughly satisfied with my h1s

    I like that the fx-Rs are a bit bigger and have more shroud ideas. I would also paint the housings a dark grey

    I like em a lot
    they're a little louder onroad than the KM2's, and ride a little rougher, but have more wet asphalt grip, though neither are great there

    theyre great on the rocks

    and they look sweet too lol

    I'm surprised that they are louder than KM2s. They look like they would be quieter than the duratracs.

    I think the KM2 road noise/ride is kinda underrated, pretty much the quietest MT on the market IMHO

    Cody, how are your CO's hold up this time?
    It's $200 more for icons with resi's than the fox with resi's, but I don't want to be cleaning my CO's every week to keep them looking nice.

    Mississippi? You've got nothing to worry about. Takes years for anything to rust.

    You forgot the :rolleyes:

    I'm used to Ca where we could leave everything out no problem, the day after we moved I forgot to pick up one of the chains and the next morning it was completely covered in surface rust.

    Anything rusts, my quad is rusting.
    I think a good part of it is the salt air.
