Finally got some seat time on my sled after having ShockTec rebuild and revalve the skid shocks.
WOW what a difference! I no longer get EJECTED from the seat everytime I hit a bump! Mostly a stand-up machine but now I have the ability to sit!
He told me the GYTR shocks are actually pretty decent, just Yamaha's valvling is out to lunch. Case in point he proved that, she rides like a caddy now!
only time I get bucked off the seat now is just a bit after I have cleared the bump, like the sled is falling and I dont fall with it...if that makes sense. I haven't touched the compression damping or limiter straps or anything since getting the shocks back, so I have a bit of adjustment if I feel like it.
Thanks Frank @ ShockTec!

Do you know what he did for the revalving? I have a buddy that does this and experiencing the bucking bronco effect on the stutter bumps.

Nope, just told him my complaints, specs of sled, my weight and he took care of it and it works!

So your center spring is the same, just a revalve?
