How did this setup work out for you? I have a 2020 YZ450F on order and plan to put the Riot track on it.

it's a killer setup. Don't hesitate to pull the trigger.

Even if I can only get the Riot base model as opposed to the LE?

Don't do it! The clickers are a big deal... even with them on firm/medium the shocks are soft and it slams through the travel. Until zbros comes out with upgrades for the Riot, or you can buy the walker evens velocity shocks aftermarket i'd avoid the no LE model. I'm moving up from 250 to 275 front and 80 tom 90 rear springs this season and replaced the TSS with a zbros shock in hopes of a better ride when getting aggressive. I'll loose a bit of wheelie but it will be worth it, it's really soft. I rode one without the QS3 shocks and it was also under-sprung and under-valved.

Do you know how much it would cost to buy a set of the Walker Evans Velocity shocks and where I could get them?

I don't think you can yet... Timbersled releases the parts for that year a month or so after they release them to the public. Other consideration is the velocity is a snowcheck only exclusive, so it might not be possible at all.

What about the QS3 shocks?

Mind me asking where you got the heavy springs from? I also find my Riot LE to be under sprung..

 

[cbc76am]

ebay. I found a pair for 275s for the front for 50 bucks and a 90 for the rear for 80 bucks.

in hind sight... southwest speed springs is the easiest way to go. I'm not sure the 10 inch vs 9 inch is better, far less preload... sags only about 15% under my weight without gear. Might be great, might not.
