If you guys were to get shocks for the LT-R which would you get. Elka, Stadium, Ohlin, I-Shocks, Fox?

Anyone try more then one pair?

That is a great write up .... I will be selling TCS shocks. They will be for a new line of long travel a-arms i will be offering. I will still be selling i-shock, but the long travel i-shock has been pushed back about 6 months.

Now that perks my interest

I will still be selling i-shco, but the long travel i-shock has been pushed back about 6 months.

Uggh, 6 months? I can see development pushed back a little, but any idea why so far?

They are doing Long Travel for all of the bikes at the same time ..... TRX450R, LTR450, and YFZ450. It may be sooner .... or it may be later. I will have photos this weekend of the new a-arms with full specs.

i have ran about every shock out there except works,I would rank them like this for me

fox
axis
pep
tcs
elka

i would put the tcs very very close to the axis pep they worked good for me only thing i didnt like was no rebound adj!

My Rating if it means anything.

1 Fox -- Super Smooth plush , but stiffens up for landings

2 PEP -- Very tough, great out of the box valving

3 Axis -- service has become sketchy as the business has been restructured

4 Elka -- good for what you pay for, but valving isnt very precise.

5 Ohlins -- Quality components, but valving could use some work.
