Here’s a quick tip to keep your brand-new axle looking brand new! If you know you’re going to be bashing your quad’s axle over rocks and rough terrain, tape it up. Take a roll of electrical tape and generously wrap the axle from the swingarm out to the hubs. Standard electrical tape will work, but the heavy-duty thick stuff is even better. When you are done bashing your bike through the nasty terrain, you can cut the tape off and still have that showroom shine for your next trip out to the dunes, where you don’t have to worry about getting any dings!
