UNCC Grad Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 I'm looking to spend about $400 and don't know which way to go. 98 Banshee, Burgard 2+1 arms, stock shocks, FMF Gnarly pipes, stock airbox with no lid & K&N. Tread is getting somewhat low on my Kenda rears bu thtey could likely last a couple more months. Rear fender is cracked but stitched with zip ties and is holding. I am considering the following: Works shocks w/rezzies - $350 ish Steering stabilzer - $125 New rear Maxxis Razrs - $175 Used rear fender - $100 Noss head - $200 Adjustable timing plate - $50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNCC Grad Posted August 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 best money you can spend is PORTING!!!!!! and weld the crank. Porting won't come until after I get my suspension and handling up to par. Can't go any faster than I can keep her straight! :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilmegill727 Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 (edited) definetly the shocks. the a-arms help when alone. then the shocks help work when with stock a-arms but both just completes it and makes it even better :thumbsup: .

dajogejr Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Take care of the fronts first....but don't forget about the rear shock... 400 won't go very far...to be honest. Try to plan ahead. A stock length swinger wont' do much good if you plan on getting aggressive porting...and a stock shock is even WORSE on a longer swingarm...like MUSH....

travis6767 Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 if you spend 450 you could get triple rate elka shocks with no rezzi's but you should get shocks either way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what im saying, 400$ isn't very much money when it comes to spending it on aftermarket parts. But if you can vastly improve an area of your bike for that much money f*** it do it man.
