I have an '04 Blaster, I like to jump with it and get big air. However, it lands really hard and I am afraid I will crack the frame or bend the A-arms or damage the swingarm if I continue to jump with it. Are there any suggestions or tips on what to do in it's stock form, or will I have to modify it. I weigh about 150lbs, so Iam not a huge guy for the machine. I am also curious about new rear tires, and which size would be best for a mx track and especially since I like to jump with it.

I had heard that I might lose some clearance with 18's, as for the shocks, that sounds like a fair price, I'll have to discuss it with my Finance Manager first. (Wife) If not now, hopefully soon. Thanks again.

I appreciate all the tips and the shocks are a really good deal, I'll have to see what I can do. In the interim, I will try to get a set of 18's on it to see if that helps with cornering and track riding. Thanks again.

When I got my 18's I lost some clearance but when you get them you should get an aftermarket skid plate as well as some 19's on the front if you can for better turning since it did improve on mine.
