[Wentzcrazy]

Im wanting to know what kind of shock I can use to replace my rear factory shock on my 2004 yamaha blaster that can handle more weight then factory?

The only shock that is just bolt on with no work is an aftermarket shock for a Blaster. Works , Elka, ect.

The 400 EX bolts right up with bushings sold by kenoconnorracing.com And a little drilling of the lower mount hole.

id say 450r with bushings its cheaper than elka ohlins or works and is 200% better than stock

i used a trx250r shock. Its easy to do and no cutting anything

i used a trx250r shock. Its easy to do and no cutting anything

i thought the 250r shock needed some modding to fit? do the blaster 400ex bushings fit?

I use a honda 450R shock with my own well made spacers.
