....was AWESOME!!!

I had a stock rear and I-Shock fronts. The I-shocks were an improvement over the stockers, but not what I was wanting. Had talked to Brian G about them a couple times, but never pursued having them redone. So, a few weeks ago I handed them off to him to work his magic. Fast forward to last Thursday when I finally got around to picking them;
They looked killer, and way different than before. The springs are much shorter and the have smaller springs to keep it all tight, but even though the springs are smaller they seem to have about the same amount about of coils. Anyways, after a weekend of attending rock concerts here and down south I was able to put the quad together last night.
Went to croom this morning with Aaron for the first ride, and what a difference. It handles much better, a huge difference over what I had before. The quad goes in the exact direction you aim it, like its on rails keeping the wheels planted on the ground, and it sucks the whoops up better than I thought it was going to with the base shocks I had. I can't believe the new feel the quad has, especially the rear. It felt very light and tracked very well. Aaron who also has a Yfz took mine for a spin and was def sold on wanting his shocks redone.
All in all, it was well worth doing the shocks and recommend it to anyone thinking about it. Thanks Ridin' Dirty Performance.
