Shocks

If you were to have your front shocks replaced on a GT what would you go with? Olins off the 08 limited or Fox Air off the RTX?

I love my Fox Floats! Never bottom out!! Love that you can pump them up, and that they are very light weight without that spring!!

Nothing wrong w/GYTR Clickers...I just got a set and got them shimed 5/8" to lower my front end and re-valved makes a big difference in handling.

That's the beauty of the Floats, you air them down when the trails are smooth. The frontend drops which helps the C.G. With low psi. (45-50) you can they are very smooth but still resist bottoming. If the trails are beat, jack them up (60-75) and you can hammer down any trail with out bottoming. It's somewhat ironic that Yamaha went with the floats on the front because there resistance to bottoming is soooo good, yet the rear shock is soooo bad, well at least in 06' it was.

I absolutely love my GYTRs.. I just had them rebuilt.. with over 7000 miles all they needed was new oil.. Great ride, handling, and no bottoming

There is nothing wrong with Fox floats either.. Everyone i know who has them loves them..

I dont think you could go wrong with either..
