I just got new Dune Edition Elka front shocks from Buchanan Racing, and like them already. I haven't been able to get out on them because I'm rebuilding the top end but they make a huge difference in just how my quad sits and how it handles the rider weight. Buchanan Racing was great to deal with, they have plenty of information for you and great prices on Elkas. I got my new shocks in under 2 weeks. You can get a hold of them through Washburn here on HQ.

I appreciate your help with getting them Washburn. I'll be sure to post how they perform when I finally get my bike going again and the weather ain't so shitty and I can get out and ride.

Got my Elkas from Wasburn, Buchanan Racing, too. Standup guy, and super easy to deal with! Just wish I could get this bike finished so I can mount them.

Same thing hear, I ordered my shocks from them aswell. Just like you said "super easy to deal with". Just cant wait to get this thing together. I should have mine in a week or two. Still no motor but one step closer.

 

Thanks Washburn :beer:

man elka's are nice but $$$

 

 

but elkas are worth every penny you spend on them. If you can find a shock out there with a body as nice telll me i wanna see. As for valving they may not be the best in the world but unless your good enough to tell it wont matter.

Yeah Buchanan Racing was great to work with and have great service. I'll definitely keep in touch with them for my suspension need in the future. :thumbsup:

 

BTW, glad to see someone from my neck of the woods, I'm in Wyoming now but I grew up in northeast Nebraska.

I got out for a short ride today (it was fucking cold, notice the snow) and the Elkas work fucking awesome. She doesn't dive into the conrners at all anymore and soaks up the bumpy ass prairie good. Didn't have anything to jump on, but it comes down from wheelies a hell of a lot nicer. I can't wait to hit some dunes with these shocks, its gonna be awesome!
