Travis22 Posted July 9, 2010 Report Posted July 9, 2010 so i just got my 91 banshee running after a complete rebuild. first time i ever rode it i noticed how spanked the front shocks were. i know people say they are harsh, but i find them down right SOFT, way too soft. so im looking into putting something else on there. i also have a 400ex with 450r shocks on it. so im wondering if a set of 400ex stock pogos will fit. if i didnt give my old stockers away i would definately have checked them. so i just want to know besides yfz 450 shocks will fit?

bansheesandrider Posted July 10, 2010 Report Posted July 10, 2010 Any stock shocks are going to suck, the factories just don't invest much money on stock suspension except for the 450 race bikes. You would be better off trying to find a set of aftermarket shocks that were made for a Banshee and that can be rebuilt and properly valved and sprung for you riding style and weight. Quote
