THE PERFECT FIT

Rear Suspension Adjustments

Suspension Set-Up

Rider weight, riding style, trail conditions, and vehicle speed all affect

suspension action. Each rear suspension can be adjusted to suit rider

preference and deliver excellent performance for a given set of condi-

tions. However, all suspension designs and adjustments involve a com-

promise, or trade-off. For example, a suspension set up for snow-cross

racing would provide a very stiff ride on the trail. A suspension set up

for trail riding would bottom out harshly on a snow-cross course.

See page 113 for initial suspension set-up information. Make adjust-

ments to one area at a time so you can evaluate each change. For further

assistance, see your Polaris dealer.
