bansheeryder_69 Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 Yesterday i went riding with my friends on their new 450 bikes. I was keeping up and probably could have been right behind them but we would be shooting down the steep dunes of st. anthony's and I would hit the bottom bottom out and my a-arms and shit would hit spraying me with sand and taking away all of my momentum. I have the rear shock on the hardest setting but was wondering if you guys have had this same probl;em and what you did about it? I need help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their pretty cheap and soooooo much better than stock, I did it and love em. Just my .02.......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallrat Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 Sounds like your shocks are blown. Time to invest in some aftermarkets! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 YFZ front shocks are the low cost answer for your diving problem. If your rear hasn't blown yet it probably will soon. The seal head design on the Banshee rear wasn't very good. It can be rebuilt and that is a much better way to go then purcashing a used one. Check EBAY for a $59. rebuild auction.
