You'd be alot better off going with an Upper and Lower Control arm set up Front and Rear, its stronger and will keep the camber true over bumps/hard turning.... Its not much more work but you'd benefit greatly from it.

is it that much better?

 

[modelengineer]

It is better, but a poorly designed double A arm setup will not be as good as a well designed single A arm setup. Also, it's much more difficult to design a double A arm setup that works well.
All things being equal dual a-arms are a bit better.

my dads being a party pooper again so im probably going to end up selling the engine

would i get more if i buy the electronics and get it started, or should i just sell it as it is/

Tell him to eat a brick of cheese.

A box of Mallomars works for me!!!

 

[ed1380]

he doesnt like prosessed sweats. idk about cheese. i guess deep down inside hes just trying to protect me

but that didnt stop me from buying $110 worth of electronics for the klr engine
the parts are so fudging expensive. the cdi and guage cluster go for $100+ each

my i ask what cc is your Kawasaki engine ?

 

[Kenny_McCormic]

Tell your father if he raises you all wimpy like you will end up ball less(probably the way he is?). Your not having fun till your bleeding/heavily bruised up.

 

[ed1380]

its 600cc. good for 40hp.

im no wimp. but saying something like that around him aint smart. he'll change it around and ill be stuck worse off. and my mom is wondering why do i want to go to college across the nation.

i got a break on shipping so its $105 yay lol

Go your own design

I think you should stick with your guns and go with your own design. It will feel much better in the end and you will be a much better engineer for it.
