$149 for the RPM hub for their axle.  Fuck you, included on the Honda axles for free?  Again, fuck you.  $142 for Lonestar's.  Fuck you too.

same thing for the banshee. im telling you, try tightening your axle nut first. Im still using my stock hub on the durablue. The splines keep the hub from spinning, but the tension of the nut holding everything together keeps it all tight. you'll have a little slop on the splines unless they are brand new

I'll try tightening it.  I still want a new axle anyways, shiny is good, right?

its only shiny until the first ride in the sand. blasts that shine right off. but you'll need an axle anyways to go with the +2 arms that im sure you have on order

I think my axle still looks okay after a couple rides.  Better than any stocker still by far.

no a arms yet, but maybe before Silver Lake in September?  I'll need to buy some new front rims then as well because having +4 inch offset rims with wider a arms would look.....strange.

Maybe Dusty would like some new rims as well for his new front dune tires!       or I can just keep them for spares too heh.

good call to Ben, the axle nut was loose.  Everything seems cinched up good now.  Still going to get an axle though.  When I was down there, I noticed some weird marks on the UNDERSIDE of the YFZ plastic.  As we all saw, the top looks fine.  Now look at the underside of the plastic, and take a wild guess what caused this?

I'm telling you...I'm surprised all of our bikes didn't have holes in them from that shit.  That was the craziest weather thing I've ever seen, and I've seen some tornados and stuff and it didn't compare to this.
