Default Trailboss 325 Rear Shock

Does any body know where I can get some reasonable priced rear shocks for a 2001 Trailboss 325? I have blown the rear shocks on both of my machines. I would like to get some I can rebuild but do not want to spend ~$400.00 per shock.

The OEM shocks are junk and can not be rebuilt. One machine it lasted about 1 year and the other machine lasted about 14 months.

Dyeform00,

Thanks for the information. The Fox shocks for $200.00 is just the ticket from Hot Seat. Have ordered from them? How were they?

If you don't mind me asking, how did you blow the shocks out?? I have a 2001 trailboss that I jump quit a bit, and have caught some decent air with many times and have never had a problem....I am just wondering if there is some that I should look out for??

We have a small track setup and the biggest jump is ~6 feet tall with a table top. I do not know if they just over heated and started to leak or what. The 325's are my wife's and daughter's

bowhunterr2001,

What is the ages that kids can ride atv's in your state on state land? In MI they have to be at least 12 to 15 on 90cc machine and 16 and older on any size machine.

Freakazoid, Those same rules apply here.... My son is 10 and he ride a 90, he has maybe one more summer left on it before he out grows it....So he will be moving up to a bigger machine, wether the federal goverment likes it or not!! It's pretty bad when the government regulates these age restrictions, and most kids are to big to ride the machine that are "suppose" to be designed for them!!
What is a bigger kid suppose to do when he can no longer steer the machine due to his legs getting in the way?? It just baffles me that the government is trying to protects us from ourselves, but who the hell is going to protect us from them?!?!Go figure..[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
