digger Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 i can get a set af barley used yfz front shocks for $300 (canadian) i was wondering if its worth it to buy them or should i spend the extra ( a lot extra) and get elka or something? also do the yfz shocks bolt right on or is there modifications that have to be made? thx for the input. 4300 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shee-Male Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 Do a search, 300. is a little high but not over priced either. There is already a number of posts dedicated to this same topic. GIVER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DIRTMAN350 Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 If it was me i would save up and spend the extra $ and buy some elka's or something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squish Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Yes junk. Save your money. Or just buy some used works and send them to shane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb7kuh Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 I have the YFZ 450 shocks and love them. Payed 250.00 on e-bay and they perform as well as a friends Works duel rates. You just have to take the time to adjust them. I just switched to +2 +1 a-arms and they work even better than befor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racer Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 can you rework the factory fronts on the yfz450? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb7kuh Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 I'm not sure. They work fine, and are a better than stock shock. I just dune ride, so I cant say how they would do on dirt. They sure soffened the whoops and landings after a jump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
