if you dont race then the works or elkas will be fine...if you do race then get the elkas with rezzies & you should be okay.

MY GOD FINALLY SOME GOOD ADVICE!!! well he's right. Im just like you. I want some good shocks but don't wanna spend that much on em. If I was u i would get the works with rezzies. Or buy a used set of peps off of ebay. Get REZZIES if u race if u just trail ride get regualr shocks. Also on ebay you could get some elka's, TCS, Works, Pep,etc... most all brands of shocks. don't get ssd cuz then u gotta rebuild the back to mathc it and it is just a pain thats my .02

I've got works steelers with rezzies right now, race them, and don't have any troubles. Moving up to a new set of fronts soon for amateur, but works are fine for most people.

im thinking aobut getting some elka ssd shocks with no rezzys when i get 525 bucks, then this winter when i do a winter rebuiold get a rear ssd rebuild and some comp rezzys on the fronts, will the quad sit weird for the rest of the summer with the ssds on the front? can i turn the compresion out all the ay so the rear sags more?

no i not related to monkey boy but eric from elka called and we talked a while about there problems, i think i will pe geeting ssd triple rates with no rezzys then winter rebuild time i will get some
rezzies nd a rear rebuild.

My question is can i just let the compresion otu on the rear shock to let more sage so the bike rides level?

ride height is adjusted with the spring, take out preload, but it messes with other stuff too.

I am thinking about elkas and getting rezzys and a ssd rear rebuild this winter when its time to overhaul the bike when riding season it over. Or should i just get works?

i know ride hiehg is about preload but if i turn out the compresion it sags a bit more so wouldnt tht just work?
