what you all do for your suspension? Im pretty clueless on what I should do. I was looking at some rear shocks on ebay but what about the forks? Do I need all new forks or extensions?

help a brother out! :YEAH

 

get +1 forks with HD springs for the front and a non resi I shock for the rear. Thats a pretty good setup for stunting.

 

sweet. Know anything about Fastace? They have some on ebay for like 50 bucks. Whats the plus of the reservoir compared to nonresv?

As of now im beatin the **** out of the stock suspension with my big ***. I mostly going to be on street and a small amount of back yard thrashing and if i need to run

 

Just becareful with some of the ebay stuff.

 

I'm gonna be honest, I dont know what +1 forks are. But they sure sound expensive.

Would it be alright to run just HD front springs and an HD rear spring? My HD rear spring is already on the way. I just started doing some jumps on my fiddy and this thing bottoms out so easy even with a 155 pound rider. Guess that's what happens when the suspensions made for an 88lb rider haha.

 

They are just stonger for legs that are one inch longer. I have them on mine. Youd be fine with just the HD springs. Might have to replace the bushings after awhile though.

 

Wont the +1 forks make it look like your rear shock is blown out with out mods to the rear? Like Swingarm ect...

 

It looks a little bit taller. I wouldnt say blown out shock bad though. All I have in the rear is a stiffer spring.

 

are all XR/CRF fiddy shocks compatable from 00-07 or do they change lengths/fittment at a certain year?

 

They are all the same.

 

im running +1 fork legs, hd springs, delrin bushings and res i shock and i like this setup!

good for stuntin these litle bikes

great for the skate parks too

 

mind posting some pictures up of your 50?

I rock a set of hd springs and derlin bushing up front and a h/d spring in the rear and im more than happy with it.

 

MXSAM- I see you moved your bars forward more, I like mine like that too.

 

once i got the hang of riding the little bike, i need more room to more around on, so the seem to work well at about 90 deg to the ground, just a touch back maybe
