I am new to the fourm so bare with me.
After reading thru several hundred posts, I still cannot make up my mind on what type of shock to purchase. Here are some specifics.
Hight 5' 11"
weight 195 lbs
Ride: 04 YFZ450, (see signature for complete set-up)
Riding style: on the throttle and out of control!!!(very aggresive)
The bulk of my riding is done on the trails, which go from one extreme to the next, such as soft sand, roots, stumps, mud, small jumps, gravel, lots of water, whoops, and large jumps.
I have been known to make a few laps at the track, usualy about once a month.
What I am looking for is a full set of shock that will transition from trail riding to track use with little to no set-up, and Will stand up to the abuse I will put them thru. I do not have a budget, but would like to spend under $4000 for all 3 shocks. I am also not afraid to mix and match front and rear shocks.
All I need to complete my ride are shocks, any suggestions you guys can offer on what type of shocks I should purchase would be appericated.
