THE PERFECT FIT
Front Suspension Adjustments
For the best ride, the suspension should be adjusted to use the full travel
of the shocks with occasional light bottoming. To determine if your
machine is using full travel, push the jounce bumper down on the shock
rod until it contacts the body and test ride the machine. The bumper will
move up on the rod in relation to the amount of travel that was used dur-
ing the ride. If the travel is full, the bumper will be seated at the top of
the rod.
Shock Components
The front springs can be
changed if spring preload
alone isn't sufficient and
further adjustment is
desired to control suspen-
sion stiffness. See your
Polaris dealer for more
information.

WARNING

camber adjustment may also be affected.
