Elkas, Raptors or KYB 40's for T3

Are the stock shocks that bad? A person is paying for an X package so should we not expect quality shocks?

I think the stock shocks are probably decent if you fall in the target rider setup for a factory stock machine with that package. That just doesn't work for every rider and how they ride.

What we can offer with the aftermarket is more adjustability through engineered components that just can't be produced in volume and at reduced cost for an OEM type shock setup.

They are ok for some people, Not good for how I like to ride though. On a whooped out trail I can make the stock X package shock fail in 5 to 10km. They over heat, simply not eneogh oil capacity. Need a remote reservoir, coming out of Area 51 riding 30kms of whoops at 100km/h the Kwb40's on my Freeride would only start to fade. Warm to the touch not hot.

40% off sale for snow and mud members!













Could be a really good marketing idea.

Are you unimpressed with them? Or getting a new set on your t3?

He had a hole thread about his hole year of riding

Well that's a bad attitude

I'll find it. Thanks for the heads up.

If we start offering discounts, we'll piss off our dealers and we can't risk going doing that.

He's an excellent rider. I'm sure more than a few people on here can say that about lilduke. I think he'd be an excellent resource for companies wanting some good product testing and/or promoting.

I won't disagree with that. I'm about 35 pages into his thread from last season

Going to have to take a break and get some work done...

Well.....I just got off the phone with Jake and Jonathan. Bit the bullet and ordered a full set. Probably the best investment you can make in a sled if you ride aggressively. The best part is they are bolt on so just take them off, get them rebuilt, and throw them on the next sled.

Thanks Jonathan!

I think aggressive is the key word I find my self going a lot faster and more aggressively into bumpy jumpy situations.
