Alrightythen i'm sure ya'll are gonna laugh but anyways my question is......Would a pair of mini shocks from a 90cc quad work on my bike? I can get a pair that are 9 1/2 eye to eye and they are in great shape. I know the shocks will bolt on cuz they have the same eyes as the ones that are on mine, but do you think the springs will be strong enough? They even have the adjusters like regular shocks. Whatcha think? If they will work i am gonna slide the forks up in the trees 2 in front and these shocks will drop it lil over 3 in the rear and that would be sweet!:whistle:
Watch it folks,i have sticky fingers when it comes to a nice looking set of handle bars:)

Shocks aren't that expensive. ATV shocks are not going to be engineered for your bike, while they would have to an improvement over struts, it's not likely that they would be a good match.

I couldnt imagine that you wouldn't be ahead by just buying the right stuff, the first time around.
