From John Mitchell
“Winning the double this season has been fantastic and I couldn’t have asked for a better season. The 2011 quad has been utterly awesome to ride. With the Elka Factory shocks, I have so much confidence in my suspension and I don’t have to think about it. Out of the box, it’s near perfect and very easy to setup. By just adjusting the ride height for the rough tracks, I was able to get an edge over my competitors.
In the Scottish championships, I rode my three year old race YFZ450 with Elka Elite shocks and this quad has seen a lot of action! Even still, the quad and the shocks worked really well and is a testament to the durability of the Elka shocks. “
