first ride testing out my ezryde last year on my m8 turbo

It is the best handling suspension I have used and I have tried several, including Holz and Timbersled. BUT! After putting over 3000 miles on mine I have learned a few things about keeping it in one piece. Ditch the two shafts with the small wheels and get two solid shafts to replace them with. I have busted both shafts every year until last when I swapped them out. Make sure you replace the shock bushings at least every year if you ride a lot, they take a ton of abuse with how much the suspension moves. Also those of you who have the small diameter front shock lower mount and have not upgraded to the larger shock mount and softer bushings be prepared to bust the front shock at some time. The bushings are too hard and do not flex causing the lower shock mount to bend and eventually break off. I bent mine after one ride. It's also a good suspension to just keep taking with you as you upgrade sleds. I have swapped mine into 3 different sleds now. Enjoy the ride.
 
Thanks for the info I already put stronger Ti shafts in it means I've bent to many to count. I should probably looking in to fixing the shock deal though.
 
I just ordered all the up graded shock bushings and the new mounting shafts for mine. You forget how spoiled you are on a EZ ryde ...until you ride your buddy's sled without one. LOL

Where do you get Ti shafts?

I don't break any shafts(knock on wood) as long as I keep the bolts tight. I do have to put in new bushings and bearings almost every year. In years past I have had the front shock upper mount problems, but have that cured now. Higher maintenance than stock, but it's so worth it. WOW!

I couldn't be happier with my EZ-ryde!
 
I make them. I've never broke them just bent mostly on the rodes doing 100mph over the bumps racing to the top.
