Default rear suspension squat

When I accelerate hard or moderately hard, my Sp 500 efi sqats pretty hard in the back which makes the front end light. I also bought this machine to move my boat around. My Honda 300 did a better job of this than my Sp. But my sp will run circles around my Honda or my buddy's Rancher!! Love this machine!! Is there any way of stiffening up the back? I've already adjusted the rear shocks as high as they will go.

Any help?

I'd check Eibach.com. If they don't have a stock replacement they'll make one if you give them the spec's of your stock spring.

I bought some mud tires (Outlaws) and HD front shocks from these folks a few years ago and was satisfied with both. Maybe give them a call.
