Default Yamoto 150- Stiff suspension/any solutions?

Does anyone have a solution to make this quad have a better ride.It is like riding a tank.I understand the shocks on a Suzuki LT160 are direct replacements,is this true,and if so does it take all three to be replaced.Also what year of LT160 do the shocks come off of to fit on my 2004 model.

Any suggestions to having a softer ride would be greatly appreciated.

BELLINA BOY.

Any year of lt 160 shocks will work on the front. Rear, no chance as the stock rear is real short. You can soften the front by swapping the front wheels side to side and putting the valve stems inside. This widens the front end and puts more leverage on the stock shocks increasing travel and sotfening the front end substantially. I have done this to my wifes quad(put on wheel spacers which has same effect) and the stock shocks work well now. Also dont run more than 2 psi in the tires.
