Thanks T. Would be hard for me to drop a new XP 2" right off the bat as good as it handles stock.....well, I'll try and pm the owner on here and see what he has done to it but I suspect it was stock. I'd hate to give up the ground clearance on our East coast riding, especially with the rocky terrain and water holes/creek crossings in WV. That is one of the things that attracts me to the XP is factory lift/ground clearance that won't affect warranty.
Being a Polaris, I'll buy all the warranty I can get.
Definitely nice to know that it has threaded adjustment and easily changeable depending on the terrain. Thanks for the video link!

I agree with the dropping but boy that guys sure does say it helps a ton.
I would not want to give up ground clearance.

I'm sure his perspective is a little different than ours since they are high desert riding in Utah. Now they have plenty of rocky terrain for sure which the ground clearance is still nice for, but given the proper skid package, he can drop it a little and not worry too much. What he doesn't have to deal with like we do is the creek crossings and mud holes. I like the extra clearance so you don't have to deal with what the early RZR's did......wet butt syndrome.
Still though, it would be nice to know you could drop it a little, especially for the guy who wanted to run in some GNCC races. I'm a little too old for that but it doesn't mean I don't like to romp down on it every now and again.

I just wasn't sure why they had the S in there besides to show the difference in the camber. I am technically challenged though. So was it to show that the same thing can be done with the S or how much better it is than the S?

heck Shawn.....you have a new XP. What do you think about his claim? Does the XP from stock need to be lowered a little?

That is why I put a 2" lift on instead of jacking on my Walker Evans shocks to get lift. Now I've got lift and kept my droop.
