P1000 rear suspension

[Nkbrucks1]

Has anyone had their 1000-5 rear wheels look like this / \ after just 1100 miles of road riding? bearings are tight bushings are tight nothing wet on the shock from leaking. Never had more than two little kids in car seats in the back. Machine is a 2021. Will get pics tonight.

Mine looks the same at only 400 miles. As far as I know no adjustments can be made to the stock machine to correct it, the only fix is aftermarket A-arms that have adjustments.
Heres mine from a few months back with minimal load in the bed.

More preload on the shocks will help but may not fully correct it.

Ya I was hoping to not have to buy the arched a arms quite yet or shocks. Pretty s***ty that they are supposed to be load leveling but they can't even support the weight of the machine it's self. Might try spring spacers just for a cheap try.

Might try some spring spacers. Sucks the load leveling shocks can't even support the weight of the machine.

They're just settling. You'll see that even after adding preload. Sooner or later you'll find a happy spot and hopefully the ride doesn't suffer too bad.

SuperATV says to adjust their a arms to 1-2 degrees negative camber. Meaning the top of the tires will lean in toward the center of the machine. I have my SuperATV a arms adjusted to 1.5 degrees negative. Do you have any way of figuring out what yours are? I have a digital klein angle finder and put a level on the outside of the tire from top to bottom. I'm just curious what angle yours are at

Your “STOCK” all stock P1’s have that. You can only “FIX“ it with new arms. The SATV arms allow u to adjust the camber. Im sure other brands do as well but im not 100%sure. Your machine has done that from day one. You either A never noticed it, or B was parked just right.

He has stock shocks, the stock self levelers have no prelod adjustment

Definitely was not like that utill around 700 Miles. Looks like a damn worn out polaris sportsman now.

Unfortunatly they are that way from the factory. Not quite as severe at 700 miles cuz the machine hadn't settled in yet. It was there! Search up top and you will see this all over from 16’ to present

BtW, your not the only one who's done this. So, not sigling you out. Just friendly New guy banter

Welcome from south Florida.

After a few hundred miles the stock shocks/springs start to settle and the camber is noticeably different (it's normal) doesn't affect the performance of the machine whatsoever. And like stated above, only way to correct it is getting adjustable a-arms.

Good luck 👍

Unless you guide yourself off of the rim, how can you be sure the tire angle is correct? When on the ground the tire will bulge out more at the bottom then the top...... I'm no expert by any means, when I did my rear SATV arms I just stood back and checked till it looked "good to me" 😂😂 been like that for at about 1,500 miles and no issues 🤞
