I was riding my friend's 06 the other day and I liked the shocks a lot better than my 05's. I know the a-arms and valving are different, but I was just wondering if anyone had made the switch and what is the review.
thanks

I wouldn't be cost affective to make the switch, just get the stockers revalved and resprung, or just get aftermarket ones. I don't think the fronts are that much different or slightly stiffer than anything. The rear shock I guess is completely different, or longer anyway. The link is different too. Don't worry about what he has, save up and get some Axis/Elkas.
