WORKS performance stock replacement shocks made for the Teryx.






Contact WORKS for pricing.

So what do those bad boys cost?

yeah, whats the $

I havnet had any of the problems you are talking about with the stock shocks and I run them hard! Someone needs to buy these to see if they are really up to snuff. They sound good but I am very impressed with the stockers. Oh yeah and how much?

Depends what your expectations are for the suspension. The teryx feels much better than the 660 rhino's i've been in. However, I don't think tha there's the dampening and most importantly the sag + adjustability necessary to make a more controlled high speed ride. Of course I have not yet tried any of the aftermarket shocks so I could be wrong. I know in my Moto X days, the stock race bikes from the Big 4 were pretty good stock, but even a novice would often really benefit from supsension revalving etc to upgrade the factory setup. Atleast that was true with most of the Honda's I rode.

I keep thinking that the one thing missing from today's stock UTV's is enough suspension travel to really allow for some active sag when sitting. I'm having fun with my stockers though )

No offense, but after seeing the quality of works shocks on atv's, I wouldn't touch these with a ten foot pole..........

Plenty of other better options out there..........

Sasquatch, curious to your experiences... share more. This is the first time that I've dealt with atv or utv suspension. I've never used anything from Works or anyone else.

Works shocks are among the worst quality in the business IMHO. They sell a lot because they are dirt cheap most of the time, but are nowhere near the quality or performance of Elka, PEP, or Axis for example. Poor valving, leaky seals, and bent shafts are the norm for Works. You will find very few serious racers using works.....unless they have been reworked by someone else.

For example, the front works above, are likely emulsion shocks...........junk IMO. Might as well stick with stock. If you want the best bang for the buck, the new elkas coming out for the teryx will probably be the best, or equal to, anything on the market. Not to mention, they have the best customer service in the business, and if you need any valving tweaked, they will do it for free. I sell them all, axis, pep, elka, ohlins and even works if a customer insists.......but if I had to recommend just one, it would be Elka hands down.

I don't have any idea how well some of the shocks made from some of the automotive companies are, I mainly have experience with atv racing, as thats what I have done, and made a business around.

Thanks for the input Sasquatch. While the teryx seems to perform better than my brief rides on a rhino, it just seems like they are long way from the stock suspenion quality of the motocross bikes I spent most of my time on. Even those, we immeadiately sent off to our favorite vendor for work.

It makes me wonder if there would be dramatic gains with shocks even using stock arms. In my case, this ride has to serve double duty as a family hauler, but now that I found out that they race them quite abit, I'm setting up for that as well. So I hate to let the thing get too wide with a 6" type kit on the trails, but it needs something I suspect to be much of a competitive ride. We'll see... 1st race will be sept 6 to sort of start gauging where to go.

There is no need to take what I post to the heart.

Sidester - Good to hear your happy with your stock shocks. You have a nice ride. You are more then welcome to take my Teryx out for a spin and then compare the ride against a stock Teryx.

Sasquatch - You sure have a lot to say. Thanks for the good words on my shocks, happy to hear you recommend them to your customers.

No problem. When Works finally make a quality product, I'll be happy to recommend them. I would never recommend someone paying good money on emulsion front shocks though....thats just assinine with the number of quality alternatives out there.

Interesting..

This is quality product with 5/8" induction hardened chrome shafts, 2" shock body, Disogren urathane seals, Eibach springs and 100% made in the USA!!!

These are not low quality or cheap!

Sasquatch, who are you? You sound like you know what your talking about, but then again, you could just be regurgitating what you read off the web after searching "how shocks work".

You sound like an insider posing as a member.

Please elaborate on your blanket statements. You have many "reasons", but no supporting evidence. Validate your claims instead of just making generic comments.

Dont call my stuff junk. I dont know what WORKS did to you, but these are my shocks on my Teryx, comprendes.

To clarify, I do not represent anyone but myself and only post products that I have on my vehicle.

Thats why I post, whats your reason?

What evidence do you want? Go to any National level atv race, either MX or XC, and see how many sucessful riders are using works shocks......the number will be close to zero, and anyone that does run them has had them valved by a third party. I have been a national level atv racer and mechanic since the mid 90's and have seen my fair share of whats out there, what works, and whats quality made or not. I'm sure they make their sales pitch sound real nice, it was nice enough to get you to buy a set of shocks it appears and to even get you to regurgitate the schpeel, but they are what they are. Trust me, I wish works shocks were the bomb, they certainly have a better dealer markup than most I'm sure that they are probably better than stock as well, but thats not real hard to do as the stockers are far short of spectacular. I'm not calling your stuff junk, or dissing you for buying it, so please dont take offense to anything, I'm just stating that there are better options available if they build these shocks anything remotely resembling their atv shocks. Maybe if you come back on here a year from now and you still love your shocks, you haven't pounded out the emulsion fronts, and the seals aren't leaking, I would recommend them to my customers. However, Works has a long way to go to shed the bad rep. they deservedly garnered and a customer who just recently got their first set of aftermarket shocks isn't very convincing to the contrary. Quality is determined by longevity...........and until you have had them for quite some time, you cannot attest either way. Until then, happy trails

again, how much did they cost?

Red Hippo,
The question is, how do they work compared to stock? How high can you jump before they bottom out? Do they pogo in the whoops? Can you go faster with them than you can go with the stockers? Do they fade when they get hot? Do they kick up in the rear when you hit a 1 foot bump at high speed, or do they soak it up? I'm sure they are way better than stock. I have a works shock on my pitbike klx110, it wasn't expensive, it's 100% better than stock, but there's no comparison to an elka shock. It is, what it is, 100% better than stock but only 40% as good as an Elka and it costs 50%less than an elka, For me that math formula works. The world is full of people who are willing to pay way too much to have the very best of everything and more power to them, they can afford that, I can't. Most of the time the people who feel the need to have the very best, wouldn't even know the difference between good and great anyways. Then there's guys like sasquatch who probably would know the difference because he's raced at the top level and he would use those shocks to 100% of their potential, most of us will be lucky to use 70% of a good shocks potential. He was pretty harsh, he must have some other issues with works. I'm sure there's an expensive shock for a motocross bike that would let me jump 150 feet, but why in the hell would I need that. I'll never jump 150 ft. I'd be lucky to jump 30 feet now days. So, How are they? Honestly. How much do they cost?
