typically in my history of after market shocks they are stiffer than stock. so if you plan on off roading an after market shock might not be the ticket. :imo:

Besides that read the sticker on the scooter, it is NOT an offroad vehicle.

Greetings:

Yup, the Whoops are no fun at all with 2" of suspension travel. I forgot who posted that there is a real risk of breaking the rear part of the transmission case.

A much better paved-road ride can be had from DayWot or VT Cycles' 270mm blue shock - about $75.
