Ok well my rear shock on my warrior FINALLY is blown.. i am getting a raptor rear shock and i love airing out the warrior.. The only problem i can see from this.. is that it may launch uneven.. My question is now.. do i adjust the rear shock off the bat to make it softer or should i just practice more and get use to it?

 

I hate to see folks switch shocks between bikes, because they usually aren't compatible (different length, spring rates, valving, linkage, etc.)! I know it is easy to find cheap stock shocks on ebay or somewhere from someone who put on aftermarket, but I think you would be better off just getting a proper aftermarket shock yourself.

To make it softer, just run the adjustment collar out some and see what happens, but it may not allow you to run the proper amount of sag????

i would go out and buy an aftermarket shock in a heartbeat





















if i had the money

 

that site is good.. wow so much good info in such little text..

 

If somebody is giving you the "wrong" shock and you want to experiment with it that's one thing, but to spend money on one is probably going to be a waste in the long run????????

 

yea.. basically... i may be getting a z400 soon.. and if i do then i justwasted $400+ on a rear shock
