I can't believe nothing comes up with a search for this topic, so I'll ask. We have a 2005 YFZ 450 with Ohlins shocks on it. Will these shocks fit a Raptor 700?

Thanks.

 

Yes YFZ shocks will fit on a 700 . If they are the same length as stock this will lower the front of the 700 about a inch though. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

I just finished bolting a pair of YFZ 450 (05's) on mine ! They instal easy and are about a 1/2" to 1" shorter than the Stock Raptor shocks. If you can pick a set up for $250 smackers or less it's well worth it! The only other thing to know is that they are a little more firm than the stockers, so getting the front and rear of the bike to compress at the same rate may be a little tricky depending on your weight.

 

Actually, I would be putting the Ohlins shocks I have on our 2005 YFZ onto a Raptor 700. They are the same length as the stock YFZ shocks, but about a thousand times more plush. I'm ok with lowering the Raptor by an inch.

Will the rear shock for a YFZ fit the Raptor 700?

 

No the rear wont fit.

 

Thanks, I'll keep the YFZ then.
