450r shocks on a z?

[brian]

i hear it can be done. also heard a few people have gone that route.
i'm trying to get feedback from those that have them........on a Z:rolleyes: .
i have a line on some, but need to get moving on them or not in a day or so.
they're cheap enough, but i also don't like wasting money.

so,
anybody have them? and how do you like them?

I put my 450r shocks on my kfx. They work perfect they set it lower and work much better. They will be on it as long as I have the bike... no question.:)

[nemesis]

what kind of mods did you do to make them work?

[kickin440]

I took off the radiator shrouds because the ress. wouldn't fit, but just a small trim and they will fit right on no changes to anything.
only took about five min. to do.:)

we put mine on my friends kfx with out any problems at all. he rode with them for about a week then gave them back to me since hes selling his quad. i can sell you mine if you want.

[nemesis]

how much? I may be interested if the price is right.

[rollie]

theres a guy that races neatv-mx idk his name but i saw he had 450R shocks on his Z and he did pretty well with them so i think they'd be ok id just save up nd do it the right way with shocks for the Z but thats JMO


later :)

WhiteZee, did u install the rear shock as well? I'm looking at picking some up, but can't tell foresure if the rear worksout right.

[Lucky]

The rear won't work

[BlueZ440]

Anyone has pictures of their Z with the R shocks. Please post, I would like to see.

[Shuee_400]

the rear shock off the 450R will work on a Z or KFX

[max22679]

When you installed the rear shock was there any mods you had to make, or did it bolt right up?

[Shuee_400]

ya the only real mod i had to make was when i put in the bolt threw the bottom part of the shock where it goes threw the linkage had to be shortend or it would rub the swingarm but its nothing bad.
