ok folks… this isnt on my grizzly, but its a general shock question, so hopefully someone can help me out.
i have a suzuki ltz400. an 03. found a set of newer piggyback shocks for it, with compression and rebound adjustments, for a very good price. well, i got them on yesterday… the issue i am having is, on rebound, there is a loud "clunk"… it doesnt seem to be at any given point in the travel… usually just halfway through the rebound, wherever it is. i can push the front bumper down 6" and yank it up 3" and it will clunk. i can push it down 3" and yank it up 3" and it will clunk..
it seems like it has 0 rebound valving, in that it rebounds without any resistance till the clunk, and then it slowly rebounds.
so… any idea what this is? sounds like my great deal wasnt too great.
Installed Ricochet skid plates and A-arm guards on my 2016 Outlander 650 XT. After riding at Hatfield-McCoy last month, the stock plastic skid plate really took a beating, especially at The Rock House. Overall, they look good, and I’m sure will work well. They were a pain to install, mostly because I was by myself, and couldn’t stand the machine up on the grab bar. I used car ramps instead. I also found that if you’re not careful, it can be real easy to strip the mounting bolts.

Ok so I was rocking the bike back and forth and felt movement through the foot pegs. I am pretty sure one of my front wheel bearings needs to be done, but I am kind of concerned about the rear end. I had my wife grab the handlebars and rock the bike side to side, when she did this, the axle was moving kind of up and down to the rear housing (see circled spot in pic), it was definitely a bit wiggly. What is the problem (can’t be normal for any movement I would think) and what do I need to do to fix it?
I have a problem with my magnum 500, where the High gear slips out when riding downhill or on slight bumpy trails.
I tried adjusting the linkages, that didnt help.
I read somewhere that the engagement dog and the fork shift are most likely at fault and will need to be replaced.
