I love to ride super cross and motor cross and so I do have done a great deal of modification to my suspension. I have a dura break oh…I mean dura blue +4 axle, +2 a arms, works dual rate with ressies, which I have set pretty stiff (9th grove down) but I still have a huge problem bottoming out. It used to be really bad when I had my stock suspension but I still do with my new set up. Even if I land on the down side of a jump and hit the throttle upon landing I still land very hard. I am not a big guy at all I weight around 150 and my shocks are set for 190. My friends and I were looking at my quad and it seems that the shocks are not what is bottoming out necessarily but my frame where the a arms mount up are the part that is bottoming out. I was wondering if there is anyways possible that I could stop this from happening? Should I tighten my shocks up even more? I still have the stock rear shock I was wondering it I were to get an after market one if that would help me any? Thanks for the help.  |

aftermarket shocks should take care of your problem. If you get an aftermarket Works rear shock, it will help to an extent. It will be a lot better than stock, but an Elka rear shock is nearly impossible to bottom out if you land a jump right.
