THE PERFECT FIT

Front Suspension Adjustments

IFS Shock Compression Damping

Make adjustments to the shock clickers to control bottoming. Make the

adjustments in 1-to-2-click increments, then test ride. Repeat the adjust-

ment until the desired result is achieved.

TIP: Initially, heavier riders may want to set the shock clickers 2-4 clicks higher

than lighter riders.

The standard clicker setting is 6 clicks

from the softest position.
• Turn the clicker clockwise for a

stiffer ride (as viewed from the top).

• Turn the clicker counter-clockwise

for a softer ride.

When adjusting, we recommend that

you turn the clicker only one or two

clicks, then test ride. Always adjust

both shocks equally.

Shock Valving

Some shocks can be revalved if spring

preload alone isn't sufficient and fur-

ther adjustment is desired to control

suspension stiffness. Please see your

Polaris dealer.

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 caution when handling high-pressure service equipment. We

recommend that this work be performed by a Polaris dealer.
