CAduner:
Thaks for all the suggestions.

One of the biggest key's to me is suspension.  I'm a big guy racing hare scrambles in the northeast, (some tight woods here)  and the best thing I did was getting my suspension valved and sprung for my weight and level.  I had FCR Suspencion in Ohio do mine, they did a lot of work to it and did an awesome job, I absolutly love it.  I mess around with the clickers alot and it really helps as well.  Air pressure and tire selection can make a big difference in handling too out in the woods too, just keep that in mind.

CAduner:
I am planning on rebuilding the forks, and sending the rear shock to Bob Bell at Precison Concepts( They are the company that do the suspension for the Honda Baja 1000 team).  I also agree that suspension is one of the most important aspects of a good handling/riding bike.
