They did make 8', I know for sure. Modern LED whips typically only go to 6' for the longer ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They make a 10 and a 12, i also like the 10' I feel if i run a SXS over with a 10' it is there fault no matter what, due to them all running 5' whips, the big issue with over 8', it turns it into a freight charge over normal shipping, If you call them i am pretty sure they have some left, They show, request a custom size on there site 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mines require all trucks to fly flags on site. I know the CAT repair person across the street has them on his service truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping to find a used 10 footer locally, as Alper said the shipping on a 10 foot whip is expensive. I'm not a fan of the disco light whips, and the guys that run 3 foot whips on their SXSs are hard to see coming at ya! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost too many whips that way. Now I have 2 whips that are fiber optic. I call em light sabers. Different look for sure. I'm not a fan of disco sticks either. I feel like leds are the rice racer stuff of today..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget the top light, the leds are brighter and you can change or choose the light color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
