    Question Shocks?

    I think it will have Bilstein shocks on it

    haha not to disagree with you again, please dont take any offense to my opinons.

    I think the blistiens would make the price way higher and they would have to valve them all the same so they i dont think they would put expensive parts on the quad. for a small amount of people they would be awsome, but for the majority of people they would be too soft/hard

    However if you where to say team Can-AM would be running the blistien shocks with Epic a-arms i would agree with you, simply because thats what there running on the outlanders.

    Probably Arvins like what are on the DS650, just a better adjustable version with rezzies...

    By the way, I think Arvins are junk for the most part...

    The stock shocks could be built and designed by Bilstein like Showa does for Honda etc. It would be a solid standard shock with all the current adjustments.

    That said, the aftermarket Bilsteins that are going to be out soon will likely be less expensive than the competition and will not have nor need the mulitude of springs and adjusters more and more shock companies are resorting to becuse they can't get valving right or use adjusters that modulate by constriction as opposed to using true adjustment devices that give a truly usable rage of adjustments.

    Here is a new idea build a better stock shocks that 80% of the rider will never max out. Then for the other 20% , have kits that can be installed for the different type of racing and adjusted to the riders skill level and weight.

    I don't know, if they made an atv application of these shocks you might just change your mind.

    Arvin Ryde Fx Air 2.0

    That said I doubt anything like this would come stock.
