When I called fox about a month ago I was told they don't make the podium X for the Outlander yet. He said not enough interest... so everyone call them and express some interest so they'll make them.
I actually think the yellow shocks look terrible on that 'platinum' colored bike, They look pretty good on my yellow one.

Yes those are the $560 can-am Fox shocks. I ordered them from the can-am parts/acc web site. The showed up in a couple of days after ordering. Ya the yellow sucks, but not much choice except spend big bucks on Elka's. I am waiting for can-am to do a 2013 X XC Outlander. It will be trade in time. So I am not spending big $ now.
The shocks are better than stock, but not a night and day difference. Biggest gain is the stiffer front springs. If I had to do it again, I would just do the spring spacers (and wait for X XC). The stock springs are so soft.
hedge... the yellow shocks look like sh.. on my bike, but not as bad as a all yellow bike. ha ha

I called AtvGalaxy about my stage 4 elka rears and they have been ordered. I mentioned the price jump a couple hours after I purchased and the lady I spoke with said they will have sales occasionally so watch ebay listings. Still not sure it wasn't a mistake, no admitting on their end.

Lucky dog, we expect a full report when you get them dialed in. I'm still waiting on my rears we ordered 1 day a apart I believe. Friday I'll have enough to order the fronts.

Nice deal on both sets, did you have to buy them out of a white van? or can you share with us where you got them?
