Elka shocks must be the hot ticket right now, it seems that everyone that is ordering shocks are getting Elka's.
I have been toying with the idea of gettting a front pair. I must have told the wrong person because one of the kids in town has a complete set for sale and was willing to let me try them out.
From the first jump I took I was hooked! I still can't beleive that it can ride that smooth. I can take jumps harder and faster with ease. It did take some time to get the rear shock set up right and I have a little more fine tuning to do, but these shocks soak up the bump so much. I wish I would of bought them before I did the motor!
Now comes the hard part, he wants $1200 for all three shocks. They are a little more than 6 months old and have never been raced on. That and the fronts are valved for +2 a-arms. I don't know if I weight a little more than he does, but they seem to work awsome. I figure I will get a-arms next any way.
The Great Jones Co fair race is tonight, so tonight will be the deciding factor if I am going to buy them or not. I guess if I do them I might have to rob the local liquor store to pay for them! :devil
