Laz also revalved and serviced my Elkas I had on my 05 450R. This quad rides great now.:cool:

I have the GTT with the stock revalved shock and it handles great. how does it ride with the elka compared to the stock ?

quite a bit better. Though the 06 stock rear is a big improvement over the 05 stock. I actually think the stock 06 rear has less buck than my 05 with the Elka shock and Elka link.:o

looks great man,
how much is involved in making 05 shocks work on an 06??just valving or shaft lengths and stuff like that too?

my best advice is to call Laz on that. I know he had to shorten my front shock shafts because they were too long (sent from Elka that way).

How do you like that Precision racing stabilizer?

I am hoping to get a 06 next spring, I will check back to see if you have any problems. Right now it seems most are worried about the oil with it not having the oil cooler for XC racing, so I want to see how that works out...
