I am considering either the LTX-SE, or the LTX-DX. I see the SE had the Fox 1.5 Zero RC shocks on the front, while the DX has the same shocks it has had for a few years, the Aluminum HPG shocks. Which shock is better? After reading up on the shocks, I would think the Fox 1.5 shock is better, but if that is the case, why is the SE $100 less then the DX? The only difference I can see between the two sleds is the front shocks, and the heated seat, which I have now, and never use. So is the Fox 1.5 Zero RC a better shock? Thanks for any input.

The fox shock is much better. Only problem i saw was the the se still had the old style in the rear but easy upgrade. And dx is more casuse of the heated seat $400 dollar option, taller windshield and all the extra bags.

Are there any compression or rebound adjustments on the DX shocks?
