Thumbs up Get an aftermarket shock

I bought a Works shock shortly after I bought my 50 and couldn't imagine riding without it. I'm sure any aftermarket shock would be a plus, but I know the works shock is solid and cheaper than most of the others. If you got the $$$ spend it. Well worth it. I've overshot 20' tabletops where it felt like my forks were gonna snap and never bottomed as hard as I've bottomed the stocker just cruising thru the yard.

My freind and I both have 03' XR50 and have replaced the rear spring from applied racing. I weigh 170 and he weighs 190 and it is a great improvement and couldn't imagine not having it.

Cool

Let ya know when I get it jaxon. My boy ran a WP shock off a KTM and it was a bolt-on. From what he says this shock will fit. It's got a remote resevior, compression, rebound, and has preload adjustment. See how it works next to my Works shock, If I dont like it I already have buyers offering $150 Sorry, it's a paioli shock not polini. Any shock is better than a stocker bro.
