I have gone back and forth whether or not to sell my Ryft, but just can't bring myself to let er' go. I do that with my Ducati as well 🤦
So my remedy to this indecision is to buy treats for them 🤣 for my Ryft, I just got in Vitavon shocks and trailing arms, some of those cheap stainless side panels, and yes, those are little scale NOS bottles, lol.

Did I really need the shocks?....no, I have a sweet set already on it that I put together after the first run with the stock shocks, and discovered what junk they were. I built some using the Traxxas UDR front no spring bodies, Kyosho 4.5mm shafts, and some internal springs.

Did I really need the trailing arms?...well eventually I would when the stockers broke. Hey, I'm just being proactive.

Side pannels? Well duh, they look kinda cool.

Scale NOS bottles? Thats a silly question, of course I needed those!

As for my Ducati, after contemplating selling it, I came to my senses and bought a new exhaust for it, LED turn indicators, and carbon fiber cam belt covers. And yes, I neded them 😉

Maybe now I need some beasty MIP driveshafts 🤔
 
Well shucks, just looked on MIP's site, and they are no longer making the X Duty drive shafts :( However, they did say that they have a new design in the works. Those X Duty drive shafts were bombproof! Vitavon makes a killer set for the Ryft......
