can any body send me in the right direction to get the smoothest ride possible on my polaris 800 sportsman x2 i want a suspension set up that will suck up and smooth out the nastiest trails. i weigh 275 and my stock suspension cant handle my fat *** i want the best set up possible.. any sugestions would be appreciated...thanks in advance

 

best way to get a smooth ride out of a polaris is to trade it for an arctic cat. 12 inches of ground clearance and 10 inches of suspension travel can hold a guy like you and then some.

 

do you know if the big artic cat is available yet? i heard they were coming out with a 900 or maybe it was a 1000 not sure?

 

its a 950cc Thundercat 1000. If you want one you better get to an AC dealer to reserve yours. $10,500, be at dealer around october. the thundercat is gonna ride sweet. race bred suspnsion, ride-in, redesigned handlebars, lower and softer seat. if youre looking for that kind of ridability and power at lower cost get the new 700H1 ac. same race bred suspension but much less pricewise.

 

man i sure would like a test ride on the thundercat

 

Oinkjackson-I put HD front springs on my 800, and set rears 2nd from stiffest. I only weigh about 200, but this helped out a lot with the soft, boaty ride and lean. Firmed up cornering and didn't change ride comfort much, all for better in my opinion. Got springs from dealer for about $60.

 

outside2day how did you turn your suspension up? ive tried , i just cant figure it out
