    But of a delayed response, but my work put an ARE standard shell on one of the 16s and it sucks. I don't know if it was a deal or not but the window out the back is so much narrower and more tinted that it's really tough to see out the back. That may be an issue common to all the standard-height shells but it certainly makes driving that truck less pleasant. Don't want your boss to get something they won't like!

    Sweet, those motors are pretty stout.

    AJ?? Nice guy.
    With that PDS suspension in the rear the springrate and valving are very critical, I used to have an ATK605 Rotax that had an Ohlins PDS linkless rear and Paoli front forks took a while to get it decent.
    Heavy AF but had torque like a Diesel.

    I had the same type of thing 2 Sumos, CR500 and ATK605 both fully dialed, had to sell both of them, I have lack of throttle hand restraint.


    Go standard leafs and get these (in the post below) airbags in addition, best way to go for a varying load IMO.
