LOL! I'm with you, gaspumpcity. "Right" probably isn't the right word, but apparently it's the way the Minnesota (eh?) engineers intended it to look, and I ain't fixin' what's not broke here. Still reminds me of a rear view of a Corvair or a VW Bug, though.

I am taking a hard look at the TM2 "Pre-gressor" cam-type front spring adjusters recommended by Big-O, though. The design makes sense to me, and one of the adjustment positions is "Stock Height". They appear to work just like the factory rear adjusters on the X2. I have no idea why Polaris didn't include adjustment on the front, unless they think it might screw up the steering geometry. More likely, they were just saving a buck. I have asked TM2 to email me the installation instructions for them, because I would like to know exactly what's involved in the install before I jump out with my $80.

Not exactly sure on the TM2 adjusters. If it was to go to a stiffer spring it requires you to; take the front box off, raise the front end just enough to get the tires barely touching the ground and taking off the top nut on the strut. Take off the old spring, put on the new one, put the nut back on, put the box back on. Took me about 2 hours. I like the ride better now.
