I think for anyone they will be an outstanding shock anything above the float 2 is a major improvement in ride quality. I have float 3's on my viper right now with out any chamber and they are still doing the trick. I think everyone will be really impressed with the rc-2 shocks, after they sit down and do small changes to get them adjusted right.
I for see a video tutorial or even a new thread dedicated on tuning these shocks

I ordered the same rear shocks from Monster Performance.. I have evol x rc2's on the front so just ordered the rears... Can't wait to use 'em!Got a present in the mail today!!! new shocks for all the way around the sled, I know in the pict it only shows one front shock but I was not crazy and got a pair. I have always been a fox guy and will keep a set for back up in case I bend these.
But GOOD GOD are these ever nice! Thank you Zbroz & Exit shocks! these are gonna add some weight to the machine but the ride quality is worth the weight increase. I will have to find a way to take it back off .....

Sorry again guys, fall is here and I am in a mad panic to get everything done before winter hits..... back filled the yard with gravel and finished up the shop to the point were it is usable.....
On the 7th I will be getting my nytro mod and viper mod hooked up to a dyno for some numbers. The plan is to get a good consistent reading before I ship my comp off to EVO!!! I cant wait to see them numbers before and after the re-flash.
looking for some shots in the dark as to how much power both machines will make (dyno off the crank) could not find a track dyno. ALL NUMBERS WELCOME except for the guy that guesses 1 bob barker
Nytro I am hoping to see 150-155hp
viper I expect a lot more 165-175
shop is done and doors are in and working
sled bay is slowly coming together, missing the chain hoist and some Yamaha banners soon to come.
The main bay is just missing the s185 bobcat
Also start of the week I should have my new red and black klim geared decal kit from ARCTICFX really pumped to see it, I ordered enough material to do the top of the tunnel and the hood scoops?

Stared doing inventory at work Friday night though this coming tues...... not leaving a lot of time for sled work! That's why it is dark at night so I can sneak out to the shop and get a little bit of stuff done before I get caught.
Machine is finally home and on the bench ready to get the strip down for the tunnel decal kit. I didn't have to take the gas tank off but I had the material to start the decal at the tank pad half way down the tank. I am homing it will give it a cleaner look.
I also didn't realize how many parts came in a ArcticFX decal kit!!! awesome it covers everything!
With the machine all apart I took the time to clean up my poor wiring job with the PCV and auto tuner.
Tonight more decals and hoping to swap out my floats to the EXIT shocks

not too bad at all You do have to take the machine down to the picts above, but then it just bolts in like a nytro header, I would much prefer doing a viper exhaust over my nytro

Sounds like it wants to go. Thanks for putting that clip up. I just bought the Hindle can and am glad to hear it sounds nice.

Got a few more hours in on the decal kit and this has to be the biggest love hate relationship ever..... epic kit great fit but wow for time to install. I have about five hours into this kit and I don't have one side complete yet.
This kit has a decal for every blank spot on this viper.... it is taking longer to cut the piece off the sheet and find were it goes than to install it......nothing a beer and some good music wont fix

Wow that really takes sled from sharp to mean looking. I really like it.
