jlsparky7 Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Just ordered the HydroDynamics 4500 Complete Front Suspension System for $745 shipped from a super secret website. Im stoked. It comes with the cheaper I-shock socks. I was wondering if I should give them a shot or upgrade to the elkas. Ive never raced MX but plan on doing some practice races this year. How much do you think I could get for the new I-shocks if I sold them and replaced them with elkas? How much do a pair of new elkas with rezzies run? Do you think it would be worth the price difference? P.S. I dont even have pipes yet and im switching out the HORRIBLE banshee suspension. Put the extra money towards pipes?

Hollister_Hitman Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 you got 2+1 a-arms right? I think you made the right decision in buying a front end rather than pipes. I think you should give them a try. They will feel really good compared to the stock suspension (they have to). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlsparky7 Posted February 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Yea all the hydrodynamics banshee arms are +2+1 according to them. I called and asked. Yea i agree the banshee isnt lacking in power stock its lacking in suspension.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireHead Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 I would tend to think that the Hydrodynamics shocks would be fine. Italian company that makes the shocks also make shocks for several other types of vehicles under several trade names. However, I did vote for replacing them with Elkas as I have dealt with them before and I feel they have a superior product. In the end, unless you are racing, you wouldprobably never feel a difference between the two shocks with the exception that one of the shocks will probably make your wallet lighter.

Washburn Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Thats a damn good deal 700.00 for a-arms and shocks. How are they setup though? You could always get the ASR A-Arms and the Elka e36s setup to your weight and riding conditions for 740.00. Mabey a little less. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ASR-Banshee...1QQcmdZViewItem The ASR A-Arms look very quality. I can get you the Elka e36s for under 400.00. I already got a pair for a member on this board. So you still have a chioce weather to go with Elka or ishocks. If you need prices on any other Elka shock PM me.
