[53yfz450]

I can almost clear that table at sm soo y you be quiet and I dont need those crappy shocks I can get 11 in travel on a LT-R and good luck on getting all A's

i dont think you are capeable of using all 11 inch. of travel.

IDA has a point,  looking past the sarcasm if you ride the quad get a feel for what it does and then improve in areas that makes you a better rider.

I was being sarcastic? ;-)

who ever bad mouths elka shocks have never owned elka's wehave owned 5 quads all with elka suspension and never had 1 problem  elkas support with there suspension is by far better than any company we have ever spoken to i dont bad mouth other suspension companys and ive talked to alot of them and ive seen alot of suspensions blow out I cant say any thing about stadium because I have never heard of them till this year

[53yfz450]

well i owned a pair of elkas and IMO i hate them. when i called them their customer service sucked they put a 200lb. spring on it when it was supposed to be a 125lb. so i sent them back and they put  a 180lb. spring on it called them back and they didnt fix it they wanted me to buy a new spring.

i like stadium because if you call fred at AIM he will sit there and walk you threw setting up your shocks. if you call him after the shop is closed he will help you whith what you need. now thats customer service.

did you buy your shocks directly from elka or did you go through a shop

I run the CUSTOM AXIS, ARS-FX set-up and could not be happier with them, some say bad service but I have never had any problems with them and yes I do push it to the limit!!!!!

      Everyone has good and bad service with anything.[   

I have Elks on my quad and there great.  I cut the rezi hose of my rear and had to send it back to Elka and the service was great. The guy called me when it showed up from UPS and then called me when it was ready for shiping. (repair was done the same day it showed up).

get stadium! elka sucks!!!

OK.........

Do any of you guys know how much Travel does Stadium have in the front?

I am not sure how much travel they have but it is a lot!!! the customer service for stadium is so much better than elka! when stadium sends out there shocks they are ready to be put on! you may need to adjust them a little but not much! unlike elka where you have to send them back and fourth because they springed it wrong or valved it wrong! elka also has air in their shocks! just ask TRX#9 about his pogostick full of air for a back shock! or aske him how many times he had to send them back because they were wrong! stadium was just released in the US last year and they out sell elka in Canada 60 to 40! stadium also has a money back guarantee!

Hey maverick calm down there. The air problem with the shock is a rare problem and can happen to any shock. I send my elka's back alot because I'm trying to get the most out of them and I'm pickie, and Im a pro level rider I demand more out of them. Stadiums are unknown to me but what I been hearing at the track isn't good and Jake been having problems with them too. bottoming out problems at sunshine and at sandmountain he had john natalie working on his shocks, if they so great and set up so great why was he asking for help from a elka rider (natalie).   

[53yfz450]

i wasnt asking for help he was interested in them because hes been hearing alot abot them. and i bottom out on the faces at sunshine because i had them too soft so i stiffen them up and now have no problem with them. just ask hondarider22 how great they wher at dade. i was the fastest and cleanest threw the whoops.

Not what I heard or seen. Your dad went over to john and ask for help on the set up, and then I left. then at sunshine i talked to maverick about what john said about the shocks and he said they were way to stiff for your weight  

[53yfz450]

well i  like them stiff. i tried to ride with them soft and didnt like it.

[Nightbreed]

[MOTOCROSS MAVERICK]
