Polaris Patents On-the-Fly Adjustable Shocks, It's Controlled From the Steering Wheel

Our favorite go-fast UTVs have had adjustable shocks for quite some time. Whether you pray at the altar of the Polaris RZR or the Can-Am Maverick, each of them has a shock option where you can select between soft, medium, and firm settings as to provide the driver with the most amount of comfort and/or raciness for a given locale. 

But those settings are either buried in menus, require you to close the throttle for them to adjust, or are on the dash of the UTV and therefore somewhat out of reach if you're on a tear through the Glamis dunes. It's a bit of a pain, if we're being honest. 

Polaris, however, has looked to that of modern supercars and their on-the-fly suspension changing abilities and said, "We'll have a bit of that!" What did the company do? Well, how does push-to-change suspension changes sound via the UTV's steering wheel? Sounds rad as hell to me.
