Does anyone Know how good the bender monoshock kit is? I am trying to decide between that, an m-10, or an expert x for my viper :2strokes:
 

It is a proaction suspension converted into a monoshock. They are the exact same suspension as a monoshock and as you may have heard, many people love tyhe monoshock as it is very lightweight, great transfer. Only regret from what I have heard is it easily bottoms out. Great for everything else though.
 
The monoshock is a TRUE innovation from Yamaha and I'm so happy they got thier **** together to finally put a suspension in that makes the other companies jealous. Its ultra light weight, transfers great, and rides great. Its soft from the factory but can easily be tightened up for more aggresive riders. Time will tell if its durable enough for some major abuse. (Hence the ProActiveCK in the nytro ditch banger???)
 
I don't think bender even made one monoshock suspension conversion. They started to advertise for it before the R and D was complete. I tried getting one last year and never got a straight anwser on when I could buy it. Although Rich at dynoport is supposed to start makeing them at his shop now.
 
I have seen several Bender Reaction kits installed, so they must have made them. I have not gotten any seat time on one of them yet, so can't tell you much more. They look real nice, and should ride real nice as well.
 
There are several out there and we are going to begin making these types of kits with lightweight aluminum parts bringing your proaction skid from 73 pounds all the way down to 50 pounds flat. This should be starting up in the next couple months and will drop 23 pounds out of your rear suspension offering better transfer and ride aswell.
 
Several out there that used them and all that I know loved them. As most know Bender was dealing with some financial short-comings last season resulting in a lack of availability for the "Reaction". This skid works great and will be in full swing availability this season!
 
I'd wait and get the CB perf one. Be about the same money, and save you 24 lbs. Thats worth it right there. maxdlx
