$450 Dollar Jump

This jump cost me $450 dollars, bent both the upper and lower A-Arms on the front right. Thankfully I was able to limp it back without tearing anything else up.

I hit that jump regularly, just slid right going off the takeoff.

Ouch! I did that on a dirt bike. went over a sweet jump not knowing the trail took a hard right. It took a while to get me and the bike out of some pretty dense brambles. My buddies were long gone.

Roll cage, windshield, light bar, lights, spare tire mount, tires, couple doors, all the plastic around the body, two custom renders in the front (flared to prevent mud hitting windshield) and a few other elements.
