Got My Noleen's Thanks KFXbryan
Here's some pic's of the stock shocks that were rebuilt by Clark Jones at Noleen j6 for me. They look sweet and the guy is amazing to deal with, super fast turn around, great service and support.
I wish I could bolt them up and ride but I just got out of the hospital yesterday after my emergency appendectomy  ! So I probably won't be riding for few weeks but, atleast I got my shocks finally!

What good are $2000 shocks if they aren't set up for you?
The Elite's were sprung and valved for a guy who is nearly 40 lbs heavier than me but I thought they would still be ok. Well, they weren't and Elka wanted an extra $230 to get me the right springs. I just couldn't spend any more many on those bad boys and this was the best way to upgrade my suspension and also get little extra cash for a seat cover or something in the process.
So, not only should these be set up spot on from for me, Noleen was also able to do there magic to these. I guess I'll be able to let everyone know what how they work as soon as I heal up from my surgery.

Here is a project video that ATV Rider Mag did awhile back with a KFX450 where they had the shocks done buy Noleen and I guess they turned out amazing. Plus Clark Jones at Noleen has been setting up championship winning race suspensions for guys like Doug Gust, Joe Byrd for many years. Plus he is super great to deal with unlike the other guy that everyone always mentions.

Man, sorry to hear about the Appendicitis. Did it give you any warnings or just hit all at once?

You know that feeling that you get in your stomach about 5 minutes after you get smashed in the pills, well I was having that felling all weekend long  Then Monday, I was working out of town and it kept getting worse so I finally went to the ER. After a couple of CT scans and an IV with some kick ass drugs the surgeon was rearranging my stomach.

How much do you weigh out of curiosity?
And does anyone know what rider weight the stockers are based on?

I'm 155# without gear. I believe I read somewhere that stock is sprung for 165# rider
