I have a question of my own if you don't mind..
Would a yfz shock be too stiff for a 140-145ish rider?

i had 1 and i didnt like how it sat so high....made me feel like i was gonna go over the bars lol, especially going down hill, but the ride itself was awesome...nice and soft and im about 180. u could also get a lowering kit to make it sit back to normal i think i might do that myself
Not too bad to mod.Just need to cut the bottom mounts down and redrill the holes.On the top you either need a new bolt to use with some spacer inserts to fill the gap in the frame mouinting point or get a new sleeve at the harware store that will go inside the needle bearing and you will have to dremel it a bit to accept the stock bolt.I modded one months ago and do have some pics if you go that route.
ok cool, ya im buyin from a guy on the forum, it should be here next week...dualstroke, i might pm you for some install questions...thanks bros
