- New review on @Suspensiondirect's Active E-Clik Pro Smart Shock System on my 2023 Can Am Defender Max. Find out if this game changing suspension system lives up to the hype, and is worth your hard earned cash.

Great review 👏
Glad you liked it! Thanks for the watch and the comment!
I don’t think I wanna go that extreme with the smart shocks, but I bet they normal shocks that will make a difference of day and night compared to stock
I think once you feel the adjustability that’s on these smart shocks, it would be hard to ride anything else. It literally transforms the machine.
If I wasn’t going to go the smart shock route, I definitely would be looking at a long travel kit with some custom length shocks from shock therapy.
@@Headupthrottledown I understand that and yes that would be great, but why I do not want to go that route is because I drive a lot 3000; km in one year I did and I know those kind of shocks do wearout/break like the Polaris and Hondas. So I’m not going to pay top dollar for a year or two and have a Brocken shock and then pay more.
@@meangrean hey! Those rebuild cycles recommendations are generally for people who are jumping/racing there machines….. I doubt I will need to rebuild mine before u would have to replace the stock components :) unless your driving your machine on the edge constantly, there is no way these shocks will see the same heat cycles that they would in a race application :)
@@Headupthrottledown that’s true too, but I drive a lot of logging Roads and back country trails usually once a week and like to take them at a bit higher speed without my filling to come loose.I was just on a whole sale for shocks website, and ther want 4-6k us. Wow they better be good
@@meangrean lol they are :) where you located? I let you take them for a rip. I have 2023 I’ve had it less than a year, and I just hit 4000km. So it was definitely a concern for me, but rebuildable is nice too…. Keep your old shocks on the shelf, it’s a 15 minute swap out and then you’ll be able to keep having top level suspension on your machine for as long as you have them :) they are also a true 2.5 shock, so they are quite beefy.
I have calibrated mine for three settings, slow and soft for low gear cruising with the family, medium setting for trail riding where you still want some cushion, and an aggressive high speed set up for when you want to go fast and not worry about the bumps. It’s also crazy how you can calibrate them to reduce body roll and pitch, makes the machine feel much more stable when you want to get a little crazy 🤣🤣🤣
One day I’ll be in the flag lands and you’ll have to take me for a rip!
That would be great!
How much did it cost?
Great question! While they retail for 3999.00 for the basic package, and the pro being 4999.00, I was able to secure a pretty good Boxing Day discount! Something I always suggest is to contact their sales team and see if they can honour any recent sales you have. While at first this may seem like alot, when you take into consideration that your not just getting top of the line shocks but a complete system with wiring harness, ECU, IMU, touchscreen interface and all the software and R&D for the products development, you can definitely see where the value is. And considering the product is designed, tested and built in the United States.
After dumping 30k for a wheeler who the heck’s got another 5k for shocks?
Some people do! It’s all about what you are after friend…. How many guys buy 40k machines and throw on portals, long travel kits, and huge paddle tires?
How much is the price difference between a top tier utv with smart shocks and one without? What if you don’t want all the other stuff that you are forced to buy because the factory controls the trims? What’s cheaper upgrading your payed off buggy and completely revitalizing its handling characteristics or being forced to buy a 50k machine because they only offer it as an option on the highest trims?
This is giving control to the consumer, giving you the ability to buy and then customize their machine and pay for only the things they want.
I understand what your trying to say, but if someone can afford an 50k machine, you definitely can afford a 30k machine with 5k of aftermarket upgrades, and be riding the exact machine equipped exactly the way you want :) that’s why it’s a game changer :)
Thanks for watching and thanks for taking the time to comment!
