for the ex, i'd say you prolly need a rebuild

for the Z, notoriously known for having soft front shocks

stock suspension ?? :confused: shocks might be worn, sounds like its time to go aftermarket

any shocks will bottom out....stock shocks suck...even with the tightest setting they still bottom very easy

sparks400, where in south florida do you ride? After seeing your site, I think ive seen you riding in the sand pits right off okechobee.

Does this jump look familiar? http://www.geocities.com/x4rancher2001/SZ4002.JPG

Sorry for being off topic:ermm:

naa thats ok for beoing off topic but ive never been up that way me and my dad r goin there soon though , we ride off 27 on the miami-dade, broward county line, will triple rate w/o rezyy be good for just screwing around and a lil bit of racig? i mean if gettin my shocks rebuilts ,means money i mine as well just go with aftermarket. hey rancher how id okechobee, do u need anything special riding gear? is there sand hills cause down here we have a construcion site that has been there forever and it has huge sand hills that we roost, srry everyone for getting of topic even though its my thread lol

I told them i was 15, which is true. They told me i couldnt ride my atv there at all. And i didnt. The picture is just other people riding. This sunday (the 6th) im going back, but i will now say im 16 and i also removed the "no riders under 16 plate" off my Z. Also, im not tottaly sure if i remember seeing you riding with boots or not, but they also require boots. I just bought some AXO boots, their nice. Let me know if your going sunday. Later
