ETR174 Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 I've started to notice that if I sit down on my Banshee and the rear shock compresses it makes a high pitch whinny sounds as it compresses. Does this mean it needs to be rebuilt or is it much better and cheaper to go aftermarket? Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willaduncan Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 so whats a better option send the stock off and have them revalve and clean everything up? or buy and aftermarket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2004LEBanshee Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Cheaper to rebuild and revalve a stocker. If done right its a pretty good shock. Up to your riding to determine if you really need a custom aftermarket. A custom set up elka for example would be better performance wise. Most people will not need it though imo.

willaduncan Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 who are the recommended suspension companies to send your shock out to? Is MCR suspension any good? who is the site go to for a revalve/rebuild? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ETR174 Posted March 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Yea when its bad it will bounce you off this dam seat through bumps. Sorry for not responding for a while. Yeah it is real sluggish over bumps at the dunes and it takes not long but about a second and a half for it to go to the point that it'll stop decompressing. It doesn't decompress all the way. I can pick it up by the grab bar and lift it up the rest of the way. Hopefully I get most of the problems fixed before I go to the dunes early in July.

5150banshee Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 I had race tech do mine think was 300 for the gold valve re valve kit and a new spring for the +6 swing arm. They did good work and the shock feels amazing. Sent using Iphone5 onTapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
