Hey everyone. I have a 2006 Sportsman 500 EFI H.O. I have stock 26" tires on it and we do mostly trail riding with the occasional mud pit. Nothing super gummy, just typical mud. My question is should I by just the springs and if so what color/s or should I just break down and buy the Sport Utility kit? I am not wanting to spend the $200 for the kit, but don't know much about the springs to justify which one I would need for the primary and secondary of the secondary is needed. Any help on this subject would be great. Thanks,

 

Try an EPI pink primary spring and a 500 Scrambler secondary spring if cash is tight.

 

Does changing the helix make that much of a difference on a pretty much stock bike? Is there different colors of the secondary spring for the scramblers?

 

try a primary spring first.Then try a stiffer secondary

 

The secondary spring from a scrambler will not work because the Sportsman 500 EFI has a roller secondary and the scrambler does not.
