front shocks

[elka400]

i'm thinking of uprading my front shocks on my 400 . i'm thinking
of going with elka triple rates with rezzies what do think is the best shock for the money 800-900 beans to spend.
took a kids 400 hundred for a ride ,he had works with rezzies . like a caddilac , can't go back to stock . i appreciate the help

Elka needs to be giving this website a discount. We do more advertising here than in any magazine or publication. Hook us up Elka! I need new shocks too. I just can't afford them. If anyone else wants to chip in to the "Elka's for Jess fund", pm me:D

I thought so too a couple months ago, so I emailed them about helping our members out since our members used to support Elka a great deal. They didn't even take the time to say no :rolleyes: That, among other reasons, is why I won't support Elka and won't run their shocks on our upcoming EXriders project quad. If they won't support EXriders we won't support them :macho The project 400ex will run either Axis or TCS. :blah

This weekend, I rode a 400 with some Works triple rates with no rezzie. Dang it rode good. We were in some well rooted trails and I couldn't believe the difference. I am seriously thinking about getting some shocks now. Probably will get works since they are cheaper, but they sure seem to use up the shock bushings. Do Elkas or other brands do that as well?

Elkas are worth every penny. I have the quad rates fully adj and they are awesome. they were a little hard, but I contacted elka and they got some springs to me in 2 days. so I gotta throw them on and when I get the bike put back toegether it should be even better. I reccomend elka all the way

I agree of all the company's that should look at least consider it, you think it would be them. I image many people from this site would like to upgrade shocks.

Just a question. If you go to aftermarket shocks does it change your ride height or is that adjustable. Seems like every picture I see with aftermarket shocks theirs sits a little lower in the front. Just wondering maybe someone can help?
