Hi Guys and Gals

Anyone have experience with the Canadian Elka suspension? Spotted it on a Swiss Spyder and followed it up. See this Elka Suspension (http://spyderryders.net.au/products.html#suspension) and have a look at their PDF PDF brochure (http://spyderryders.net.au/PDF/Elke.pdf)
Looks pretty good and would be no more expensive than the Penskes for us downunder.

Man those look like they would be GREAT. A bit $$$$ , but great stuff.

Elka is considered the cream of the crop in the ATV world.

Might have to save up some $$$ and look in to these.

Evoluzione.net also sells a Penske setup that looks really nice. Around $2,200 for all 3 shocks, but they don't have all the features of the Elka.

Call me weird, but if I'm spending that kind of change for a set of shocks I sure don't want to be messing with a wrench to adjust the preload.

Looks cool, but expensive.

My concern would be, if they are spec'd to my weight, what would the ride be like when carrying a passenger or lots of luggage?
