Default Predator - Walker Evans Suspension experience???

Has any Predator owners rode a machine with polarises, Walker Evans Shocks? I have seen the units and they look as trick and of as high a quality as I have ever seen but I am wondering how they perform.

I have the fronts and I'm very pleased with how they perform. I'm thinking about upgrading the spring rate for the MX track though. I find myself bottoming on the harder landings. The fit and finish is great.

How different do they feel compared to stock? I race Hare Scrambles and I want something good all around for, rough woods-slow speed and fast motorcross sections with medium sized jumps. Does the WE shocks effect the cornering or does it feelthe same as stock?

Thanks, in advance!

I havent had experience with the Walker Evans but I can tell you this.....

For just over a 100 more, Elka makes Triple rates rezzies' , self sagging device, compression adjust and one more inch of travel fronts for the predator.

IMO, Elka is the way to go.

I would probably go with the Walker Evan's units, seeing as how Polaris themselves uses them on their race sleds, and they are factory tested and "endorsed". Nothing against Elka, but some sources have told me, they are THE ticket. When I'm done writing and testing the current crop of equipment, I'm hoping to be able to possibly give 'em a spin.
