Hi guys, I just picked up my brand new 2022 Sportsman XP 1000 S and I can't seem to find the button/setting for the different modes for EPS? There's nothing in my owners manual about it?! Any help would be greatly appreciated

Did you get the right manual or are you sure you have the S model? There are 9 Sportsman XP 1000 models and the S model does not have 'mode' EPS.

Yep, page 63 of you Owner's Manual tells you all about it... There is no EPS "button". You change the settings in the Options menu

And the ride quality of the stock shocks are actually quite comparable to a high performance shock for regular to moderate riding. Yes I know you would notice a difference with Evan Walkers but I'm saying only when the machine is pushed to its limits. Yes I know the stock shocks are not fully adjustable. Settle down folks.

The ole bait and switch lol. Polaris' website shows the 2022 XP1000 S as having adjustable EPS but apparently not.
Pay your money up front, wait for months to get it and we'll send you whatever we want. Welcome to the "new normal".
I guess you're supposed to just be grateful that you even got one, no matter what features it has or doesn't have and Irregardless of what was advertised.
Well, that is false advertising at the worst and misleading at the least. I bought a Dodge Dakota RT 9 months old with 2500 miles for $11,000 because Dodge misstated the towing capacity and Dodge gave the previous owner his purchase price toward a Ram 1500 with a smaller V8, but met the required towing capacity. This case might require Polaris to correct the situation by providing a 1000 XP with the mode EPS and changing their advertising or making the 1000 XP S meet the advertised specification.

OK, good!
Did you figure out how to adjust it?
I don't really understand what the advantages are of "adjustable" EPS? Maybe someone can enlighten me?
Yes I did, it's in the settings on the dash. Many people have complained about Polaris EPS being overly sensitive at hight speeds so this is what they did.

Walker Evans I think has piggybacks, duel rate springs, threaded full ride height adjust, and 15 or so clicks of rebound?
New ones are straight shocks with 5 ride height clicks. Im not 100% but correct me if I am wrong. If I am right, these two could not be more different!
