m-10 vs stock 05 vector suspension

[vetcorman05]

This summer i picked up an m-10,have it,have not done anything with it yet. What i'm wondering is would this be worth the hassle of installing and would it be better than what my 05 vector has now?

The M-10 suspension is a very nice set-up and you wouldn't be sorry installing it in your vector. On the other hand, a set of GT shocks on the front and a rear clicker KYB shock will make your Vector perform wonderfully well on any trail. Since you made the investment in the M-10, go with it.

I bought the m-10 originally to put into the wife's indy 500 but decided to completely rebuild the xtra-10 in it instead. Now it's between putting it in the vector or the v-max or putting it in the vector and putting the vector skid into the v-max.

I bought a new 05 Vector and was ready to sell it after riding it 600 miles. I tried different springs, shocks, valving......it still rode like a lumberwagon. Got my hands on a M10 and 16,000 miles later it's still in the sled. The M10 transformed it into the best (IMO) trail sled available. No more slide wear issues either. It DOES suck to end MPH off. Probably as much as 10 mph, but ICGARA about top end.

I bought my 05 with 7000+ mi on it I now have 9000+ and its the best riding sled I've ever been on,now I came off a 94 v-max(a rock with a motor). But I think I'll run through the m-10 and put it in the vector.

I mean this nicely: you don't know what it feels like to be on a good riding sled! You'll need a mount kit which you can get from FAST. Measure 5X then drill 1X. Watch the length of the rear screws cuz they could touch the track edge and snarf up the edge.

The m10 is amazing, you won't regret it

40 yrs of in the sport.... best aftermarket thing I have ever put on a sled! Have one (M-10 AIR) on my Apex after many dollars and time trying to get the stock skid to work well. Brian at Team Fast is great at helping you dial it in.Love mine!

Ok you guys have got me to make the decision to go through and rebuild the m-10,Shocks,wheel bearings and so on, the mount kit from fast is like $225 so it might not be until mid winter before it goes in. Have to finish the wife's sled,have some work to do to the vector and two others that need some small regular maintenance things done so that we can use them this year.
