txblueshee Posted April 11, 2006 Report Posted April 11, 2006 no... those shocks won't even come close to fitting... Mike Quote
Kwietshee Posted April 11, 2006 Author Report Posted April 11, 2006 OK thanx for the info ,Ill save my money Quote
guttedEF Posted April 11, 2006 Report Posted April 11, 2006 no... those shocks won't even come close to fitting...Mike 500383[/snapback] I've seen 660's with YFZ450 shocks, and we all know that Banshee's can have those as well. I've never tried the raptors, but are you sure it won't fit? My friend has a 660 with YFZ's, but I'm not sure about the year. Are the '05 660's different from the older models? Quote
racer Posted April 11, 2006 Report Posted April 11, 2006 when in doubt measure. pop off one of the banshee stockers and lay it next to the raptor stock shock. if the eyes dont align, then they wont work. Quote
Kwietshee Posted April 12, 2006 Author Report Posted April 12, 2006 well just in case they do fit, do you guys think they will help me or will I even notice a difference at all? thanx Quote

slowpokebanshee Posted April 12, 2006 Report Posted April 12, 2006 my buddy swears by them, he took them off of a 01' raptor, and put them on his banshee, but he also has +2 arms, he also used the rear shock , I did notice, that it sits up a bit higher than my bike with same size tires, so I would guess, they have more pre-load, stiffer springs atc. I gave him an older set of works w/out reservoirs, with a fresh charge, and he took them back off in favor of the stock raptor shocks....for what its worth Quote
