well you cant just bolt on shocks that are wayyy to long like the hondas, the geometry will get fudged.

are you currently running stock shocks or do you need new shocks since the old ones wont fit the +2 arms (long travel arms or regular?)

I bought the bike with +2 A-Arms and stock shocks and I figured its easier to get some trx250r race shocks cheap or maybe stock 450r but Im tryin to get a good understanding of what the extent of changes will be
