THE PERFECT FIT Front Suspension Adjustments Shock Valving RydeFX or RydeFX SOLO shocks can be revalved if spring preload alone isn't sufficient and further adjustment is desired to control suspension stiffness. WARNING Changing shock valving on RydeFX and RydeFX SOLO shocks 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. Front Springs For models without externally adjustable or revalvable shocks, the front springs can be changed if spring preload alone isn't sufficient and further adjustment is desired to control suspension stiffness.

THE PERFECT FIT
Front Suspension Adjustments
Shock Valving
RydeFX or RydeFX SOLO shocks can be revalved if spring preload
alone isn’t sufficient and further adjustment is desired to control
suspension stiffness.
WARNING
Changing shock valving on
RydeFX
and
RydeFX
SOLO shocks
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.
Front Springs
For models without externally adjustable or revalvable shocks, the
front springs can be changed if spring preload alone isn’t sufficient and
further adjustment is desired to control suspension stiffness. See your
Polaris dealer for more information.
