Well,
I ordered my LSR axle, Elka front triple rates with SSD and rear with SSD shocks and went with front EZ fit wheel spacers for now....I need to stay married after all and A-arms can wait a bit.........JIM

 

Jim,

That's great. It seems like your SPEED is slowly turning into a Moto killer...LOL

Post some pics when you get everything together.

I know all about the wife thing......oh,..I forgot..that's why I am divorced.

 

Patrick,
I will post as soon as everything comes in. I know some people have had problems with Elka shocks, but when I had mine on the 400ex; they were spot on. Should be here in 3 weeks. I started a web page, has a few pics of me on my 400ex and one of my Speed, will be updating it soon as I get some free time. .......JIM start of web page

 

So your staying with the Elkas. I hope they work good for ya. Ray hasn't had anytrouble either, so I wouldn't worry.

Good start to the website.....can ya make the pics "en-large-able"? Wow, that's not even a word....but I think you can understand me by now! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

What kind of things have you heard about the Elka's? I had considered getting a set the next time I buy shocks. I hadn't heard anything bad untill you guys said something.

 

a couple of guys in EXRiders are having trouble with valving and the spring rates.

 

I have Elkas on my mojave and love them!!I havent had any problems what so ever!!I think they are a well made shock and look cool to.

 

Where did you order your shocks from? what was the price of the fronts? thanks

 

I think you will be very happy with Elka. The set up on mine was right on. They set them up for my riding ability, weight and type of racing that I do. I may be wrong but I think thats were people run into problems when ordering custom shocks. They have them set up for a "Bill Balance" ability and not their own.
You could probably get a better price from a dealer rather than ordering direct from Elka. I would post a # but that would be an ad so e-mail me if you would like a phone #

 

I ordered a lsr axel for my speed 2 months ago.Its still not here.I have called every week and they tell me the are going to ship it next week.Today I called they said they will be made in a few more weeks.Good luck geeting your axel.I think I am going to cancel my order and get a diferent one.
