Well, i got my elkas in the other day, and let me say that they are awesome. They are used but they are in great shape. I was riding in the street by my house and was in 2nd gear and turning with stock a-arms, and it barely even tipped. These things hug the ground like their supposed to. But one thing i wanted ot know is why are my piggyback rezzies so big? Ive seen others and theyre not near this big. I dont have a problem with it or ne thing, i was just wandering

Shock lengths are different for most quads, plus most of the ones you've probably seen are Long travels, so the shock is 19-20 inches long, instead of 12 to 14 like yours look. So your just thinking its bigger because the shock is much shorter.

Even if the shock is REALLY short, they are going to use the same Rezzy, because they mass produce them.

Can anybody tell me about these shocks by looking at them. Are they good? I know they are compression adjustable and have threaded pre-load. And i can tell that they are single rate. It seems weird to me, but i dont have a problem with it. Is it bad taht their single rate? BUt ne thing is better than stock to me.

Send them to Precision Concepts, then you will have an amazing setup...
