Default suspension for scrambler

I read other threads that the heavy duty springs that pure polaris offers isn't worth the money, but that the front springs from the 600/700 will fit the front struts and do a great job at a cheap price. I'm still trying to find out if there is a spring to fit the rear from the 600/700.

Hot Seat Performance offers some good suspension mods such as Fox rebuildable struts, which are way better than stock from what I heard. HSP also offers dual rate springs. If you are looking for better struts I would take a very good look at Works suspension. From what I hear, they are the best and people liked them a lot. I'm sure others will help you out more.

I had works on the front of my scrammy and absolutely loved them. They would soak up and root, rock, or jump you could throw at them. Just call Works directly and they will valve it for your weight and riding style. And if you compare them to the Fox struts, they are also a little cheaper, but better in the sense that they have progressive dampening meaning the harder you push them, the more they will try to resist. I never did bottom them out, and that was even jumping 30ft. of a 50ft table and flat landing...very soft landing. You will love them!

If you have the money go with the works setup. But if you still want a great pair of struts up front go with fox struts. I have them on my scrammy and love them. Way better than the stockers.

Both work great and unlike the stockers, are rebuildable. Either way, the dual rate springs should be purchased to go with whatever you buy.

I have a set of Hotseat springs that I am willing to part with.I took them off because all I do is mostly drag racing.They do offer a better ride over stock,and jump good also.(I did a lot of that in my younger days,motorcycle wreck put an end to that.Frature dislocation of the wrist,can't take the jolt from landing anymore.)[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] I also had a pair of the fox struts on a 99 500 ,BIG improvement over stock.
