    PIT VIPER Bodykit Fender Question!!!!

    anyone experienced any differences between them (fendergrabs.....)?

    and which one is the best?

    i have all 4 unlocked and normally use the 3. which has the shortest fender........should i use another one or are the differences just a visual thing?

    I can't help because I haven't tested this properly yet. I really hope that they don't make any difference because I only like the look of one of the bikes. It would really suck if I had to use a body kit that I didn't like just to make fender hooks easier!

    i said like a don´t move track and it´s just for me for testing


    btw i´m not 100% sure but after a few test i would say ther is a difference (tested the 1st upgrade/longest) and the 3rd one(shortest)

    seems like i have to use the 1st upgrade now

    Bike customisation is just cosmetic. Although they did tell us fmx tricks wouldn't affect speedrunning so who knows really

    Also if you guys have the last Roach upgrade, I think it's Hue or something. In the garage no front fender, in the game, it's red and can't be changed colour wise, wtf.

    Im pretty sure there is a different on the bodykits, i might of course imagine this, but the third upgrade, the one with the hard angles
    That bike IS? a lot stiffer to ride than the other bikes which is much softer in appearance, i cant bounce as high from the backwheel on that one like i can on the other bikes.
    Again... my mind might play some tricks on me...

    Unfortunately that isn't true, mate. Don't think they affect speed or weight but they definitely affect your ability to do certain things. Take a look at the bodykits for the Roach. Two of the kits (I think 3rd and 5th kits from the top) have a big chunky bit of bodykit around the bottom of the engine giving these two less ground clearance. I have been trying to do the Top Roach challenge (the last one I need for 120/120) on Rock of Ages and was having trouble on some of the obstacles with the bottom of the engine catching on rocks when trying to flick up on to them. I had bodykit 5 on and the bottom of it kept digging in. I just couldn't work out why I was having seemingly more difficulty than others seemed to from the replays I've seen. I decided to compare the bodykits and changed back to the default one and have far less issues now. So they DO affect the bike, try it and you'll see what I mean.
