Lets expand it a bit further!

What set ups does everyone have for their suspensions?

Front and back and maybe even price too if you want.

I race on the stock fox shocks that we have converted. These are some of the best performing shocks we have done. I was really suprised at the ride quality of the fox podium shocks with just a few changes. Full conversion $700 on all three shock including the shock body mod which lowers the atv over 2"

Hey Colby, doing all that to them, do they ride as well as long travel?

The Fox website has Floats listed for the Outlaw. However There is tonnes of guys saying that they have podium x's all four corners. Which is better and how much would the podiums be?

Talked to Ronnie at Willson Racing. He indicated that for a normal joe shmoe he would recommend the Podium shocks all the way around with a rebuild. I however have a 07 model with the rydefx shocks which he said i could rebuild and it would be alot better. Cost about $1000.00

He basically said stay away from the floats unless your a pro rider or can afford to rebuild them every ride.

I have Elka's in the back and 100% satisfied. The ride is more comfortable and I'm a lot faster in the whoops now.
