If they're not compression adjustable, I vote no

But if they are valved for his weight then I would give the nod to the Elkas. The stock shocks are valved for the "every man" and just to general to get a good shock feel.

I have a buddy with LT elkas on his YFZ and they are only ride heigth adjustable and the ride is unbelievable.
Just a little 81hp trail bike.

they claim they will add travel over stock, plus you can add the reservoirs later. i have ridden a 400ex with works dual rate w/o reservoirs and it had a nice ride. i was seriously thinking about them until i picked up a full ishock i5500 kit for $650.

Nice!!! Where'd you score a deal like that?

I got my full set new for $800 shipped.  :clap: :clap:
