A recent modification was made to the GNCC Rules about suspension modifications. The new modified rule allows the riders to use Elka Suspension spring kits over the stock strutts, thus providing personalization to the rider's weight while reducing body roll. Elka offers spring kits for the Kawasaki Prairie 650/700 and the Suzuki Twin Peaks 700. For more information, call us now at 1-800-557-0552.

FROM THE OFFICIAL GNCC RACING WEBSITE:
April 3, 2006 - Effective immediately, the following rule change has been made to the Stock ATV Rule:
Stock front suspension springs may be replaced by aftermarket front suspension springs on ATV models using a strut-type front suspension.

This change was made after considerable evaluation. The move primarily affects the Kawasaki Prairie 650/700 and the Suzuki Twin Peaks 700 in the Utility Stock Class.

The full rule reads:
Stock (ATV) - All motor components and rear suspension must remain stock. Aftermarket replacement parts may be used so long as they maintain the same basic design and material of OEM parts, do not improve motor performance, add travel to the suspension, or have a reservoir. Example: must have stock pipe, silencer, carburetor, air box, air cleaner, rear shocks, etc.... May change tires (excluding Tire Balls), wheels, throttle assembly, axle, handlebars (excluding handlebars with bushings), grips, skid plates, plastics and seat covers, including those that add traction (but do not change seat height). May add bead locks, nerf bars, foot peg extensions (but not foot pegs), and open or closed-end metal or plastic handguards. May not add larger fuel tanks, quick-fill fuel systems, steering stabilizers, steering stems, automatic clutches, air filter sleeves, front shock reservoirs, or modify or remove front shock reservoirs from machines that come equipped with them. May change ! front shocks on ATVs that do not come with rebuildable stock front shocks, but may not replace the front shocks on ATVs that do come with rebuildable units stock (like the YFZ450). Only machines that come equipped with front reservoirs stock may run them. Shock valving may not be changed, and suspension springs and/or preload may be changed with original manufacturer parts only of current or previous years models.

Stock rule effective 4/03/06:
Stock front suspension springs may be replaced by aftermarket front suspension springs on ATV models using a strut-type front suspension.
