Thinking of up grading to a 450r, but what parts (shocks, alxe, a-arms, swing arm?) from a 400ex can still be used on the 450r?

Thank you for your time

i just put my works from my 400ex on my 450r & they are much shorter than the 450r shocks which causes my 450r now to sit lower but it gave me better handling.. if you do mx or any jumps or anything you will dinf yourself bottoming out alot. I like it though b/c i only trail ride so when the works shocks caused my front end to sit lower my handling improved 100x's. it no longer has any tipsy feeling

Already did a search.....THANKS.


Axle will fit sprocket will be 1/8th inch off, front shocks will fit but a little short elka will convert my elkas for $355 to a 450r.

Anyone know about the rear shock, swing arm or if the a arms will fit?

Thank you!!!
