Description

Can-Am Ryker Aftermarket Rear Shock / Coilover by Elka Suspension
Have you noticed that your Ryker rear shock bottoms out when riding with a passenger? That’s because suspension is not “one size fits all”, just like we all prefer a different mattress for our body style, shape, and sleeping habits… suspension should also be catered to the individual. Do you ride alone or with a passenger? Do you prefer to tour or ride the canyons, or both? Are you riding on road, off-road, or dual sport? How much do you weigh? These are all questions that should be asked when purchasing new suspension, so that the suspension can be tailor-made just for you and your Ryker. Elka suspension does ask these questions and offers 3 available rear shock solutions to choose from. Below, you can read more about the differences between each stage of suspension and what adjustments are included with each.

What rear suspension stage should I get for my Ryker?

  • Stage 3 is our most popular shock model, providing a great balance of performance and adjustability at a competitive price. They are ideal for riders who are looking for a great, no-nonsense performance upgrade.
  • Stage 4 Ryker shocks offer the performance of our latest technology in a package that is more accessible and easier to use. They are ideal for enthusiasts who are looking for high-performance shocks with great adjustability of key parameters.
  • Stage 5 shocks are our top-end model featuring High-Flow technology, ultra-lightweight design, and low-friction internal components. They are ideal for racers and enthusiasts who are looking for maximum performance and total control over all suspension parameters without compromise.

EXPLANATION OF ADJUSTMENTS
THREADED SPRING PRELOAD ADJUSTMENT
All our shock absorbers come standard with a threaded preload adjustment that allows you to fine-tune the initial force applied on the springs and precisely balance the weight distribution across the front and rear sections of the vehicle. This adjustment is required to set up the ride height (ground or chassis clearance) and to lower or raise the vehicle, allowing you to adapt to various situations or to suit your personal preferences.

You can easily adjust the preload by turning the ring located on top of the springs using the provided tool. A locking set-screw (3 mm Allen key provided) tightly secures the ring to prevent it from coming out of adjustment when riding. Although the preload adjustment procedure is easier to achieve when the vehicle is lifted on a stand, it can also be done on the trail.
