good,inexpensive upgrade=banshee shocks

[lucasislight]

i have bottomed them out, but not nearly as much as the stockers (although when i got the shocks i flipped the front wheels equalling more leverage). lets face it, the warrior is a fat heavy pig and not the best jumper. if i wanted to rebuild the entire quad i would have went with elkas or works at the least. i bet the works are 10 times better than the banshee shocks. i was in the market for a cheap, quick, temporary upgrade until i decide what to do with this warrior, so the banhee shocks were perfect for me. if you intend on keeping the machine for the forseeable future i would get works, they arent even that expensive. the biggest gain i noticed with the shee shocks was soaking up the bumps in the trails.

So just a raptor 350 and banshee shock is the only one that works on a warrior?

 

[vile]

would they be a good upgrade for an 06' 350 raptor? or is the front suspension an upgrade from the warrior?

 

[lucasislight]

the raptor 350 has better front shocks than the warrior, even with the banshee shocks on my warrior i still prefer the way my brothers stock raptor 350 jumps and lands. i would stay with the stock unless you go with works shocks or something comparable.

I agree completely.
Guys, If you're going to ride super hard or race, do yourself a favor and get some quality aftermarket shocks. It'll pay off in the long run. I'm just a beat around trail rider so I can't justify spending the extra dough on equipment I'll never ride hard enough to tell.
I can say, for $54, the Banshee shocks was one of the best bang for the buck things I could do for my Warrior. Even at double the money I would be more than happy.
P.S. Anyone want to buy a good pair of used Warrior front shocks? ;D

ya but if ya hit nice big jump do they still bottom out? i have to set my stock warrior shocks all the way up just so they wont bottom just on a 5-6 footer.

damn that sucks..i have a 30 ft tabletop/double and i dont bottom on that

Just for the better ride quality their worth it.

yeah..im thinkin about it now..i already race with the stock shocks and plan on getting a different quad so i dont wanna spend the money on aftermarkets
