Image 5. Click to enlarge.	A few modifications After the Harvey short course, a few modifications needed to be made. Firstly the front suspension has been modified, heavy duty shocks have been fitted and the mounts have been shifted and the bump stops modified. All of this should help give the boys a softer landing!

When the front pads were pulled out and checked, they fell apart in Matt's hand! Now the GQ sports twin spot heavy duty brakes on the front.
