Basically the cheap thing for front shocks is banshee shocks.  I don't think the ride smoother exactly, but they let you jump higher.  I wouldn't say blasters are great for mx, but they're fun to ride.

YFZ450 shocks are too long for the blaster, you'll have to do banshees.  As for the rear, you can puta 250R one on with no mods, or you can put a Z400, kfx400, dvx400, or 400ex (all the same shock) on it, but you have to modify the top and bottom of the shock mount, and trim some of the airbox.  Right now I have banshee fronts and 400ex rear, and it lets me jump decently high without bottoming, but a stock 400ex still rides better.

Nope, they mount different.
the distance from the top shock mount to the A=arm is too short for a 450 shock.. hes ight you have to use a banshee shock..

Hey 954Toomey since you live near me maybe I could come check out your blaster and see what has to be done to put the 400EX shock on the rear. If so let me know by sending me a message
