Following are the things that i wish to do-a)longest and strongest front suspensions.-how bout a avenger one?
B)19 inch front wheel c)17 inch rear wheel

that my friend is a looong list , for front and rear suspension upgrade you can go for apace rtr180s front forks and rear swing arm set ,it should be a direct fit to the shoguns chassis and it has provision for rear disc set up as well

nice, go for the apache setup man , i believe tvs has been using them on motocross events for years , the apache swingarm is a lot longer than the ones you are using now , that itself will increase the stability of the bike

Tvs motocross team uses 2 bikes x 125 and x250.not sure about the mill and frame, but suspensions are definitely from other motocross bikes.the front ones are usd for christ sake!way back in late nineties they used modified shogun engines in the indian class and rm125s in foreign class.i have seen that patel guy racing on both the bikes in 2000 spring.

yes in the 2 stroke class they use mx125 and mx250 bikes the whole bike is assembled from off the shelf items available in europe , the engines are from rotax , brakes from bembo , excel rims etc etc ...., but now they mave moved on to 4-strokes and are using rtr 125 and 250 cc bikes with similar setup , i was recommending the stock forks because tvs used to race pretty much stock bikes with the bare minimum mods done to them ......also forgot to ask what is the purpose of the bike

Whatever direction our discussion goes,its a pleasure to argue with a knowledgeble 2stroke person,& not some john abraham wannabe, who loves to write dhoom on his side panels.
