Elka nitrogen pressure recommendations?

[paul_700]

Can anyone tell me what nitrogen pressures elka runs in their fronts and rears? Is there a psi range they like to run in or are they all over the board depending on model?

searched for this and didn't get a clear answer.

I think you will find a variance across builders. I believe when I recharged my front last time it was like 175 psi.

all elka shocks that i service, i charge back to 200psi of nitrogen!

its not a good idea to try and change the way a shock preforms by the nitrogen charge!

ok thanks guys. I will keep them all around 200psi.

You should call Elka to know the correct pressure.
By the way it's 150PSI for the front and 175PSI for the rear.

Yeah that was my plan but my dealer rep at elka isn't getting back to me very quickly. I can get faster response on this forum than from elka so far. Good company with good products but costomer service isn't always their strong point compared to the other shock companies we deal with.

Norris is a better shock tuner than your elka rep I promise. Go with what that man says.
