i want to get better front suspension for my warrior. I dont want to buy the works shocks because they cost too much and i am only 16 years old and dont work so i wouldnt get that money. I have heard that the banshee front shocks also fit on the warrior. is this true? if so will i get better suspension and about how much do new or used banshee shocks cost. thanks

I don't know whether Banshee shocks would fit a Warrior nor am I sure they would be much improvement over your present ones, assuming that yours are not worn out. I think you best bet would be to try the classified pages for some used aftermarket suspension. As you may already know, prices for oem parts usually tend to be more costly than aftermarket parts and often not as good. I'd guess the New Banshee shocks would cost you very near what some aftermarket Works shocks would be.

I am pretty sure that one of the guys I ride with has banshee front shocks on his warrior. Problem with this is that they are stiffer and your bike would ride stiff like a banshee If your shocks are not worn out, setting them up better is about the only thing you can do. Check your tire pressures too, Having too much air in your tires will cause your shocks to take the impact, too little and it will drive like a wet sponge. I am unsure of the front shocks, but your back shock is re-valvable, Works sells a valveing kit, or just get new valves put in if you cant afford that. Hope this helps you out a bit, as having shocks work "better" is a bit vauge..
