Why not, the yfz make awsome trial bikes, I got one sitting in the shop, my buddies and we trial ride it every weekend we get. mainly the suspension, and the power aspect. even though they are a race bike, you can ride the hell out of them on the trials

In my opinion yfz's aren't that great for trails. At least rough, technical trails. Where I ride you need torque, low end power, and gearing to match it. The 450's don't like going slow, and when you have rough trails like these you just can't go slamming over everything at top speed or you'll never ride a full day without breaking something. Aside from that, the ground clearance sucks and in my opinion the suspension and the rock hard seat is a little harsh when you're riding trails all day. I'd take a raptor over a yfz in the trails any day. Heck, I wouldn't trade my warrior for a yfz in the trails.

Were i ride, people think we are crazy for taking any type of sport bike up the trials, not to mention dirt bikes, but you can run 22" in the rear and 23"s up front and a lower gear sproket on a yfz and kick ***, you got the ground cleareance and the torque you need, I don't know, never been a fan of the raptors, to narrow, If I was going to trade my warrior in, I'd go for the yfz, but thats my opinion. Plus with the yfz, you can keep extra tires and sprokets and easily switch out to go mx racing when it comes into town for fun[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I'm assuming you have 10" rims, if so yes you can run 22"s up front if its 2 wheel drive? What kinda bike?

they're probably 21-7-10

Yeah, you can go to a taller tire with no problem, it just has to be the same wheel size.

It works pretty well. The stock ones are even a good improvement over the stock warrior shock. The only modification if you go with a stock banshee shock is that you will have to make a small dent in the bottom of your airbox to make clearance for the banshee's piggyback reservoir. No big deal, all it takes is a heat gun or torch to soften the plastic and push a dent into it.

The reason the banshee shock is better, it that it has compression adjustability, and that the spring isn't so harsh so you get a smoother ride.

I have an aftermarket banshee shock on mine, and for that it takes a little bit more work. I wasn't really sure how much it would take when I bought it, all I saw was that it was an $800 shock for $125. I ended up cutting the bottom part of my airbox out and replacing it with a piece of aluminum to make clearance, no big deal though.
