mxmadness Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 I wanna get a bansheee but i heard that the front suspension is shitty, I would replace it once i get one. What shocks should i replace them with and if so what a-arms. should i also replace the rear shock. When i get one what other sorts of parts should i put on one. Quote
Wallrat Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 Elka shocks seem to be the most popular. I'm still running stock so I couldn't tell ya much, but I will say that the suspension works fine for normal riding. Any quad will benefit from suspension/A-arm upgrades. It all depends on what type of riding you're going to be doing. Most people seem to upgrade the front, the rear is okay so you don't have to drop too much $$$ in one go. Quote
tats4life Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 Depends play riding or mx, if ya gonna run mx take alook at long travel kits. Quote
mxmadness Posted November 20, 2003 Author Report Posted November 20, 2003 how much are the elka shocks, or is there a website that i could go to to find out __________________________________________ current ride.. 02 cr-125, and lusting for a shee Quote
Spank_N_U Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 Ive got white brothers dual rate shocks front and rear....they make all the difference in the world. I also have +2+1 a-arms and a 4" extended axle. Such an improvement over stock. just seems alot more stable when jumping. Quote
87blueshee Posted November 23, 2003 Report Posted November 23, 2003 i got the Alba Pro Comp Suspension and i like it and it looks really good and performs great. Quote
Wassup350 Posted November 23, 2003 Report Posted November 23, 2003 I know this sounds like a racist company but i have WHITE power racing shocks My shee handles great with them though and lands like its on air. Quote
Banchetta Posted November 23, 2003 Report Posted November 23, 2003 I don't care what ATV you buy, there is always better suspension out there...I have Works front and they work pretty well, my friend has Elkas and I don't see any difference exept the rear, but my rear is stock and his has Elkas....My cousin bought Works for his 400ex and had just as good results as the shee...The Honda suspension isn' t that great niether...

acracing55 Posted November 24, 2003 Report Posted November 24, 2003 Elkas are 515.oo for the front pr. but you can pick a apir offebay for about 225.00 Quote
InFlames Posted November 24, 2003 Report Posted November 24, 2003 How much do you want to spend? Quote
spoin39 Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 I have works triple rate w/remote resivoirs on the front of mine and a works ultra cross on the back. I race mx, gncc, and some hillclimbs and love them. Be carefull who you buy them from though, if they don't ask you questions about how you ride and how much you weigh look elsewhere. I had to have mine revalved at TCS and they are 200% better! Also if you are going to run mx go with a -1 swingarm, It handles much better for mx. If you have the cash +2w/+1f are the hot setup.Hope this helps. Quote
spoin39 Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 The +2/+1 was for the A-arms,+2 wide/+1 forward. Sorry bout that! Quote
