Will TCS shocks take out those annoying bumps?
#1
I am thinking of upgrading both my front Works triple rates w/ rez and stock rear, with TCS's SCS. Will these shocks take out those bumps that you feel on dirt roads and trails that you usually hit at high speeds? (You know, the ones that dont even look like they are there, but they make your butt bounce up off the seat.) And also will it make you not have that High speed twitch that 400EXs have. Like when the bike just seems to jump around from one side of the road to the other. Thats a slight exaggeration, but it seams like that though. All help is very much appreciated. Thanks

I will have to say probably so. I have TCS on my 400 and 2 weeks ago (first race on shocks) I won because I passed so dude in the whopping whoops that my front end just soked up. But haven't never really ridden down anything else except mx with them. Oh +2 arms don't hurt anything either

If you order TCS's from CT Racing, Alan Knowles or one of his people will interview you to determine how to build you suspension. Don't blow smoke at him but tell him what your skill level is & what your riding style is. If your wish is for XC or high speed road & trail, he will valve & spring them accordingly. They won't necessarily be the ideal for MX or other venues, of course.
Oh, one other thing:
you'd get cans on your front shocks & with 20 clicks adjustment they would eliminate the stutter bump problem, especially if your rear shock would have rebound adjustment.
As for the darting you mention, that could be simply head shake, which can be caused by tire tread design, incorrect pressure, or just front end geometry on the bike. I took care of the problem on my Warrior with a steering damper from PEP. Of course changes in the camber of the road or trail itself may be a factor also.
