Hi All,

Considering a VR1 with Dynamix for this season. I have been on an XCR 136 for the past 3 seasons with revalved suspension and dual-rate spring setup. I have reached a point in my riding now where I do not need or want the most capable trail sled. I favour plush comfort over 4ft mogul smashing capability.

I have been hesitant to jump on the electronic suspension bandwagon. For one, the added cost and complexity of repair if needed. Likewise,with standard shocks, you can valve them exactly how you want them. I have ridden the smartshox on the Ski-doos and I was not overaly impressed. I recognize the Dynamix setup is much more adavanced.

Looking for feedback from those who have gone to the Dynamix. Especially those who have experience with the WE VR1's. Any regrets? Any negatives? ANything you have not been impressed with?

Who you referring too?

Levi lavalle. I thought I read on here somewhere about him choosing a dynamic sled over a Xcr . For some ride. I was just pointing out for those that don’t know that Levi is not really a good example for guys to judge suspension on good or bad. Because he is a little fella and most of us including you and j are not .

Also if u watch every yr video back to back from 2020or 21 on he contradicts himself every yr. In my experience every yr he said was the best was completely the opposite from my experience. And if anyone thinks he actually gets off his sled and adjusts suspension and knows what hes adjusting is sadly mistaken. Someone does that for him

The stock spring setup is based on an average of rider weight. Being you have riders from say 150# to 300# your not going to get the ideal setup without changing the stock setup. It would be nice if you had options for torsion springs without it being an up charge

Hey everyone! Realize I haven't had a chance to get back to hear to read the comments and thank everyone for sharing their comments. This has been extremely insightful and valuable information. Really appreciate it. I am on the lookout for a Dynamix VR1 for this season. At the same time, will be ordering the Hygear linkage for the XCR as well.

Only problem right now - cannot find a Dynamix model that is NOT the rust orange colour - or whatever Polaris calls it. That colour is not for me.

I agree, not my favorite color either but thats what I ended up with... I did a few things to make it a bit more presentable.
