ATV Four Play has introduced its NEW MGC Long Travel A-arms for the Kawasaki KFX450R.
We believe that we have one of the best handling front ends on the market today for the new KFX450R. With many hours designing on CAD and developing different wheel bases and widths of the machine. We have certainly done our R&D on this vehicle on and off the track. We have decided that we will go to market with a +2" wider and +1/2" forward A arm. By doing this, it will apply more load to the light front end.... assisting in the turning and handling. In addition we also changed the caster to what we believe to be the correct degree. However, if you prefer.... we offer an adjustable caster option as well.
CAD developed for the optimal shock to A-arm motion ratio. The ATV Four Play MGC Long Travel A-arms are for the serious motocross, cross country and desert racers. Whether it’s a rut, rock or a stump this design clearly has advantages over the normal conventional straight A-arm and the “Gull Wing” design. The ATV Four Play MGC Long Travel A-arms are constructed with only the highest quality 4130 chrome-moly alloy steel tubing products available. The CNC parts are checked and re-checked for accuracy before the manufacturing process occurs. The gussets are all CNC laser cut for an identical accuracy. In addition they are also engineered for exact critical placement locations on our A arms. All our products are TIG welded by professional welders with many years of experience in the motorsport industry.
After the powder coating and or chrome is complete, our last step before packaging is reaming the delrin bushings. As simple as it may sound most other manufactures leave this part of the process out. After the Delrin bushings are pressed into the pivot tubes we run a reamer through the bushings. This opens the I.D eliminating the majority of the drag when you tighten you’re A arms on the frame, giving you the right flow they need for a smooth travel.

Kawasaki KFX450R ATV Four Play Long Travel A-arm Kit This kit includes:
Width: The wider your go, the more stable the quad becomes. The suspension also gains wheel travel when you widen the stance.
Forward: The forward position is determined from the stock location. Depending on the rider, bike and type of riding, some people want to change the forward position of the A-arms to help keep the front end down , balance the weight of the quad or add bite in a corner.
**ATTENTION RACERS - If you are purchasing A-arms for racing, be aware that +3 a-arms on most ATVs may put the width of your ATV over the regulation limit. If you are running negative offset front wheels (4+1) then you may be able to run +3 A-arms. Please be aware of the regulations, know your equipment and do your homework before ordering.
The following configurations are available for this ATV.
Please choose either MX or XC racing.
The XC A-arms are built using 1" x .120 wall tubing on the lower arms versus 1" x .083 wall tubing on on the MX. The shock mount tube on the XC arms are also made of .120 wall tubing. The XC arms are built this way to endure more abuse than the MX arms.
We offer the following finish options for these A-arms.
