TPhillips Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 I have a complete YFZ450 front end, A-arms, Shocks, Spindles, Hubs, Calipers, and Tie Rod Ends. I am looking to make my bike better in the sand. I want the bike to handle the whoops and choppy sand better. Is this 450 front end going to help me out, or am I going to have to revalve the shocks to get it right? I don't want to put this front end on and still require shock work, when I could sell the front end and buy aftermarket shocks and maybe for a little more get aftermarket a-arms. I guess my question is are the aftermarket dune valved shocks going to ride better than my YFZ setup? What about the stock shocks after re-valving them? How do they ride compared to recreational aftermarket shock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruko Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 The 450 front end would be a big improvement over stock, but an aftermarket front end set up for your weight and riding style would still be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPhillips Posted June 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 The YFZ's usually ride pretty stiff, does that translate to the Banshee, or can they be softened up enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
