I just bought a stock 250R and I love it. The only thing I need is some good MX shocks. I put 400ex shocks on it and they are way too soft to ride at tracks with. I bottom them out all the time and its really limiting my jumping. I was thinking about getting some works tripple rates w/ rezzys but then I thought mabye yfz or trx450r shocks would fit. Since they are fully ajustable and have rezzys they sound like they would do the job. Im going to call up my dealer this weekend and see what the price is on a set of front yfz shocks. Does anyone know if they would bolt up to my R? How about the new honda shocks, is the front end close to the same as the 250R or 400ex? If either would fit, how would these shocks compare to works tripple rates? Thanks!! , David

 

You are better off going with an aftermarket shock. OEM shocks for the YFZ are going to cost you the same if not more unless you buy them off ebay or something.

 

450r shocks will be to long for the 250r.
