I knew you'd dig those Elkas! They're everything the stock shocks should have been. It's a new machine isn't it? It's really remarkable the difference it makes. I was shocked (pun intended) when I rode a BF before and after. I knew it would be different but I didn't realize how different.

The guys I know have busted tie rods fairly regular and I do recall a knuckle or something being torn up fairly recently but I didn't hear exactly what. Something or another is always broke. Nothing major usually. Those guys ride like maniacs though. They could bust anvils.

The worse was an entire front end that was basically ripped out after some sort of high speed submerged stump encounter. That was a real horror show. Not the quads fault. That was bad luck combined with "hey watch this!"

 

Nuttin' good ever happens after the phrase "Hey watch this", [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Yeah, typically after that phrase, somone is doomed. They are pretty sweet shocks, but I'll have to wait until I get them dialed in, to be totally amased!

 

or some of my famous recent last words "I've been through here before and it's not that deep..."

 

Glad to hear you like the Elka's. I ordered some for mine about two weeks ago and they should be here soon. Cant wait!

 

I bet you will love them. I rode a machine like mine with the elkas and man what a difference. The bumps just fade away.
