I took Big Johns advise

I had my shox all revalved and recharged and install the hillclimb rear shock. Wow what a nice difference. Stock i was bottoming out in the front with springs at max and the rear was wollowing around and augering in in climbs.
Now my front springs are on 3 and its perfect. The rear h/c shock is fantastic ! Perfect ride and tuneable for how you ride. This is how it should have come from the factory.
If you are over 230 and you havent at least done the revalve you are missing out big time.
Also , installed Winter brews clutching and was very happy , best setup so far !
Slp pipe is now in and I can find no reason to remove it.

Now for the SHR 860 and 2.5 track

Thank You, I try....the FUNNY thing is, this simple upgrade came from a big dummy in MINNESOTA...you'd think a REAL mountain shop/tuner would offer a simple stock shock tune up....-BJ

* like the post this came up in..the $2500 skids are GREAT...but the stock skid does work with simple revalveing/springs for around $250

BJ, so are you revalving the shocks, etc. or someone else?

I've had good luck with the rear shocks I got from BJ last summer - put them in the RT162......I also put in heavier rear torsion springs.....don't bottom out and the suspension is like night and day.

Contact big john. I dont know if you need to spend the 450 on the hillclimb rear but man i sure like it.
