Tommilicious Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 Does anyone have a video or detailed write up on aftermarket a-arms/shocks vs stock? I've had many banshees but never had or rode one with anything but stock suspension. I do trail and woods riding and I'm just curious to educate myself through others comparisons/experiences. I thought it would be really cool to see a video comparison of before/after on a banshee with suspension modifications if anyone can reference something they've seen before? Thanks.

98_sheester Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 Ok well this might not be too detailed But a stock banshee front suspension isnt great the shocks are just shitty as its only a single rated spring and that mean the whole shock spring is doing all the work meaning absorbing the tiny bumps and holes and on top of that trying to use them in corners..a banshee is naturally nose heavy and narrow but stock arms arent bad depending on what you using it for....i use stock arms cuz my trails are super tight.. But if you have the riding room to get your shee 50in all the way around it will handle night and day difference that would be atleast +2 rear axle and +2 arms but remember it will be nothing without a good set of shocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider11 Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 There once was a guy here. He said he could hit bowling ball sized rocks and not feel it with yfz shocks. Burried 1/3 under the ground. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
