larry, you need to get a pic of the rear of the jbl against an "original" style and show the difference in the width and height. pretty dramatic. even though the jbl is set at the same ride height as an "original" it appears lower. the width will scare anyone with the 335 tires.

I'd like to see that! I bought a used Can-Am cobra recently, (time, money and circumstances dictated doing that or I'd never get into this hobby the way I want to) but honestly my heart is still set on a JBL. One day, hopefully sooner rather than later!!

Boxhead,

www.corner-carvers.com is an excellent site for Tech questions like that. But be very careful and read the forum rules. If you just ask a question that could easily have been answer by searching on there site and google they will be rude. They pride themselves as being a more of a tech site that a social site... Also as a new user you must read and heed the forum rule until you are approved. Its a pain in the ass but they have there reasons and its there site. When I can't figure something out thats where I go. Mac

Thanks for that Mac, I will check it out and read what I can before I fire any questions about.

Box Head,

The Rules for new users are located General Discussion Forum. Read all the sticky threads at the top. The Honor List is not required reading but puts things in perspective for me.

In the side shot, you can really see the height difference in the rear quarter area above the rear wheels.

Sorry Vector1, missed your question- Can-Am is a cobra manufacturer located in Vancouver BC. They have been around for a long time, (mine is frame #2 and its 15 years old), but are quite small. Square tube perimeter monocoque style frame.
