Ämne: Eftermarknads MX Stötdämpare

[SkoGsvilden_]

Tror att Öhlins skulle komma nu i höst/vinter med en ny serie dämpare som är framtagna just för quad cross. Tror att Jesper Rosling kört med såna i årets RM serie som testpilot.

Låter ju inte helt otänkbart eftersom jesper är testförare för öhlins..

Men de låter ju iallafall grymt m dämpare speciellt för quadcross!

Narmasil, även ni andra också.
Nått som jag gått och funderat på under dagens gång, du har ju kört med spacers på framhjulen och hur påverkade det stötdämparna, blev det nån skillnad eller vad.  Vilken bredd hade du, ni på spacern då med.

Jag körde med 2" breddning fram, just i fjädringsverkan så vet jag inte hur mycket det påverkar egentligen, Dämparen hamnar ju längre in och blir på så vis mycket känsligare. Borde dock även vara sämre. Det man märker mest med spacers är att det är otroligt trögstyrt och rycker mycket mer än om man inte har spacers

Skaffa dom dämparna du lättast kan få service på Dom flesta märkena är bra om man får dom rätt inställda!

kan man inte göra service själv? kan väl inte vara så märkvärdigt att byta olja och packningar ?

Det är ju också det att man vill ha perfekta dämpare och om man går upp/ner några kilo kan dämparna kännas helt fel och då behövs kanske en om byggnation med shimsning osv Men det är säkert jätte enkelt bara det att jag som är ot

Hmm jo du har kanske rätt... Då är måste väl Öhlins vara bäst? servicemässigt altså. Dom andra märkena är väl inte så etablerade i sverige just. Känns segt att skicka iväg dämparna halva jorden över för lite renovering som tar över 1 månad att få tillbaka

Annars är ju fox också ganska bra som man kan ställa in allt det där med en pump (eller har jag fel) och jag vet att bengans motor i ?östersund? renoverar fox dämpare.   Men å andra sidan är det bra att stödja svenskt nu i kristider

jag tror nog att minhoj.se generalagenten för foxshox kan nog ordna med service på fox dämparna.

Nämen då är ju problemet löst. Det går runt i huvet, Fox, Elka, Öhlins.......  det dröjer nog en stund innan jag köper nått tror jag. min glade vän som kör KFX är ledsen att han hamnar efter fast han har 15hk mer än mig så han ska ta hem Elka's troligen. Hade vart fint å prova skillnaden

här kan du läsa vad dom skriver på ltr450hq.com om olika dämpare.
http://www.ltr450hq.com/forums/suspension-steering-chassis/1329-shock-companies.html

Quick low-down...

PEP - Top of the line shocks, amazing damping quality. Order time ranges from one month to three months generally. Extremely high quality precision tuned shocks, but many are turned off by horrific wait times. Average pair of shocks through PEP range from 700$ to 1700$
[attachmentid=1677]


Fox - The standard fox float line of racing shocks (not Evol X's) are an extremely light option that is often favored by drag racers. The reduced damping ability offered by the fox floats from stock shocks is generally not missed for the weight reduction that the drag racers strive for.

The Fox Racing Evol X's are for those looking for a damping upgrade over stock LTR shocks. With an air-ride system that maintains reduced weight and superior damping characteristics make the fox racing Evol X series a serious contender. Most who have ridden an Evol X frontend will agree that these are the best shocks available. Choice of Factory Suzuki riders Jeremiah Jones and Doug Gust, these high quality shocks also won the 2005 GNC championship piloted by Honda's John Natalie. Many challenge that air-shocks similar to Fox's Evol X shock will phase out old spring-rate tehnology. Evol X's retail for 1395$ and are available through site sponsors for cheaper
[attachmentid=1678]


Custom Axis - Another extremely high quality product, great damping characteristics. Performance is generally compared to PEP, but many consider them to be a SHORT step behind damping quality of PEP generally. However, awesome customer service and CONSIDERABLY shorter wait times make this a shock of choice for many. Sleek black look makes the color scheme match up with nearly every ATV out there. Prices range from 850 to 1400$ or so.
[attachmentid=1679]


TCS Racing - Considered more of an underground company. Company philosopgy is to spend less time trying to sponsor a few factory riders to spread the word and put more time into customer service. Awesome quality shock just from a much less known company. Alot of people disregard TCS because of the lower prices, but do not count them out. Valving is perfect nearly every time, and you can send the shocks back if you don't feel they are perfect. TCS has been around for a long time, and can offer any service package you wish. From quality "rebuilds" to new longtravel setups, they can do it. Prices range generally from 700$ up to 1000$ on a new set.
[attachmentid=1680]


Elka - Probably the most "main-stream" company out there, spend alot of time advertising/marketing. Have been in the sport as long as the other guy, and are high-quality shocks. Many consider Elka's major performance down-fall in "off-the-shelf" building. Every aftermarket company out there sells Elka shocks, and Elka uses generalized valving. Still excellent quality shocks, and many consider to be one of the easiest on the eyes as well. Provide excellent customer service, and are willing to answer any questions and solve any problems. Sending a pair of Elka's in to be dialed in for your setup will increase their efficiency to put them near the top of the performance list. Prices generally range from 600$ to 1400$
[attachmentid=1681]


Noleen- Now personally, this is a company in which I have next to no experience with personally in the shock industry. I have ridden their Noleen front-ends before but always with a different companies shock. From what I have seen, great quality products; just no personal experience with their shocks. I have asked for opinions from riders who are equipped with Noleen's new J6 shock series, and I have heard nothing but GREAT things. This is a company I would honestly feel content/safe in spending the 1395$ retail that Noleen asks for pair of tuned front shocks. Believe rears retail at 895$
[attachmentid=1682]


Stadium - I haven't ridden a set of these yet either...From what I hear, they make excellent quality products, and have a great look with their gold-colored reservoirs. Have a long history in European racing and entered the north-american industry in 2000. Since then have been exploding and are quickly becoming a large part of the US ATV racing scene. Not 100%, but I believe prices range from 800$-1700$ or so.
[attachmentid=1747]


Progressive - Makers of the 6th sense shock, newer to the industry but are another company quickly becoming known. With the largest amount of adjustability of all ATV spring-rate shocks on the market, you are able to go from a motocross track in the morning, to your local GNCC race that afternoon. Sleek silver and gold look that is easy on the eyes. Generally priced from 1100-1800$
[attachmentid=1684]


Ohlins - Another company that has been in the industry for quite a while. Were considered "old technology" as of five years ago, but with recent upgrades in the last three years, Ohlins' line of shocks perform on par with the best of the best in the shock industry.. Personal experiences with the new generation Ohlins are great, they handle awesome and the gold look works great. Prices range from 700$-1250$ from what I know?
[attachmentid=1749]


Motowoz - Newer company to the ATV industry that are unknown to the general quad racer. Personally could be my favorite shocks appearance wise...extremely high quality shocks that are offered with a titanium spring. Combination of stunning appearance, and great damping characteristics should propel Motowoz into mainstream motorsports in the near future. Prices from 1200$-1800$
[attachmentid=1686]


iShock - iShock quickly became famous with an excellent line of pitbike shocks and their popularity has spun out of control fast. Getting into the ATV scene over the last year, they are quickly jumping into a new genre shock companies are experimenting with by offering complete front suspension kits all under one package. With iShock's new i5500 complete front suspension package hot off the assembly line, this complete package including a-arms, tie-rods, shocks, etc is becoming popular in the freestyle and race worlds alike. Testing with the popular Akraix freestyle team, iShock is developing some of the most rigorously tested new technology on the market. Prices range from 649$ to 1849$ depending on which kit you purchase
[attachmentid=1687]


Works Performance - Considered an economy shock with cheaper prices, and great turnaround times. New blackwidow line has offered a large quality increase over old works technology, and is becoming a popular choice in the racing scene. Prices ranging from 400-1100$ I believe
