Suspension

[400EXTRD]

was wondering what the choices were for suspensions. I only ride the dunes. Looking for a sweet set-up. Shocks, a-arms, swing arm, etc. thanks

There are so many companies out there that make the products I just listed a couple so you could get an Idea again it is all in how much you want to spend
I hope this gave you a starting point.

well if im gonna do an all out suspension I'm gonna do it right the first time. So what set-up is the ultimate for dunes? thanks and roughly how much will the complete set-up cost?

Alot also depends on your riding STYLE. I know lots of dune riders that only shoot the drag hill, and thus don't need hardly any suspension upgrades in front, but are well-served with an extended swingarm.

Hitting the bowls? Wide and low suspension, look into +2 or+3 a-arms and basic shocks with adjustable pre-load to lower your ride height, along with an extended axle.

The trails and canyons surrounding the dunes? Probably +1 or +2 and definitly external reserviors to keep the shocks from fading in the heat.

Jumping? Long Travel a-arms and shocks.

You want to go ALL out? Get +3 Long Travel A-arms and Zero Preload Long Travel Shocks in front. The +3 will give you a wide wheelbase, the 0-preload shocks will lower your ride height and give you stability, but you'll still be able to jump them extremely well. A +1 1/4 extended swingarm is a terrific upgrade, unless you REALLY like to wheelie all the time. If you have 0-preload in front, you need 0-preload in the rear, too. And of course, the extended axle.

Cost varies greatly with brand, but higher cost doesn't necessarily mean higher quality.
