That's some photo.

Are they standard Ohlins shocks on the front?


Thanks. Standard Ohlins with FOX adjustable bottles and my valving.

Pump had been holding 30-40psi overnight so I thought all was good. Wrong. It failed me 1 hr or so into a ride I have been looking forward to for a long time. Stock is going back on and I will source a new pump and put whole setup on my race quad. I can't afford to be testing on the trail quad since I need to count on it for long rides in middle of nowhere.

Update:Wasn't the pump. I had a bung welded on the exhaust couple days ago. In doing so I disconnected the stator and regulator for safety. Must have had a bad connection because it was not charging. Cleaned connections and good to go now! I did notice the quad was turning over real slow when I had pump troubles. But, it still started. Eventually battery was drained and quad wouldn't start. A Voltmeter, small set of jumper cables and a minute to clean connections would have had me going again. Will add that to my trailquad survival pack for sure. Probably attach voltmeter where I can watch it since I do run with lights on trailriding.

Ah, I just saw the springs, the rezzies are well hidden. I would have had mine done but the shipping etc was a knightmare etc...

I think you might have done some work on the ones boomer sent you that are working their way over here........?

Oh yes. GT Thunder shocks. I was impressed with thier adjustability. Am curious as to how well they work. Had a rather long secondary spring so may be a little soft but from adjustability I saw I think you can make them work well!

Excellant! can't wait to try them and will report back here. Bound to be an improvement over the speeds Ohlins which I've put up with for a season.
