old put-put Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 $800 means you need to save up and get some Elkas, they are the shit. Fox evos are supposed to be great as well, I have eperience with the Elkas and just get a set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old put-put Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 +2+1 a arms are going to make you more stable for sure I've got two sets of asr's and really like them they have served me well. ASR is not the most expensive , but they seem to be a quality set of arms. The Elka's ride like a caddy, deffinately a great shock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3s1k Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Just curious on why the stock a-arms suck? I got a free set of stock yfz450 arms I'm going use since I'm broke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
So Cal Suspension Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Just curious on why the stock a-arms suck? I got a free set of stock yfz450 arms I'm going use since I'm broke. Stock a-arms are not junk... you have to take certain people's advice with a grain of salt around here... they have lasted some people 15-20 years. I would recommend keeping your stock a-arms over going with YFZ450 a-arms, to keep your geometry the same, and shock length a stock banshee length. If you run the YFZ450 arms, you will have to special order shocks to fit those a-arms. If you decide to change your a-arms down the road, you will be GREATLY limited on what you can purchase using your existing shocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
