THE PERFECT FIT

Front Suspension Adjustments

Shock Valving

Some shocks can be revalved if spring preload alone isn't sufficient and

further adjustment is desired to control suspension stiffness.

Please see

your Polaris dealer.

Shock Compression Damping

Turn the adjustment knob (or screw) to

make adjustments to the compression

damping. When adjusting, we recommend

that you turn the knob only one click (turn

the adjustment screw only slightly), then

test ride. Always adjust both shocks

equally.

IQ and SwitchBack Models

The standard setting is 10 clicks from the

full stop position.
• Turn the knob clockwise (A) for a

stiffer ride.

• Turn the knob counterclockwise (B) for a softer ride.

LX and Touring Models

• Turn the adjustment screw clockwise (A)

for a stiffer ride.

• Turn the adjustment screw counterclock-

wise (B) for a softer ride.

WARNING

Changing shock valving requires special tools and a sound knowledge of

mechanical theory, tool use, and shop procedures to perform the work safely

and correctly. Shocks contain high-pressure nitrogen gas. Use extreme cau-

tion when handling high-pressure service equipment. We recommend that

this work be performed by a Polaris dealer.
