What is the main benefit of the internal bypass design?

The internal bypass design allows for a damping curve that is softer over small bumps and chatter, while still providing significant resistance to bottoming out on larger impacts. This results in a more comfortable ride and better control over varied terrain.

What does the RC2 adjuster do?

The RC2 adjuster lets you fine-tune the low-speed compression settings. This is useful for managing body roll, improving stability in technical sections, or opening up the damping for faster, smoother terrain.

Does this shock come with all necessary mounting hardware?

About this part

Product Details

The 2.5-inch diameter body of the Fox Factory Race Series Internal Bypass RC2 shock is built with a robust, anodized aluminum construction, designed to handle the rigors of off-road racing and demanding trail use. This shock absorber is specifically tuned for the Honda/AM/Talon 1000R 4-Seat, featuring an internal bypass system that allows for a unique damping curve. This means you get a smooth ride over small bumps and chatter, while still having significant control and bottom-out resistance when you encounter larger obstacles or jumps.

Inside, the RC2 (Remote Reservoir, 2-Position Compression) adjuster gives you precise control over your suspension's behavior. You can dial in your low-speed compression settings to manage body roll and improve stability during technical sections, or set it for a more open flow for faster terrain. The remote reservoir helps to keep the shock cool under heavy use, preventing fade and maintaining consistent performance. This shock is a significant upgrade for anyone looking to push their Talon 1000R further off-road, offering a more comfortable ride and improved handling.

This front shock assembly is sold individually. For a complete suspension overhaul, you'll want to ensure you have the correct shocks for all four corners of your vehicle. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for detailed mounting procedures and any specific hardware requirements.
