THE PERFECT FIT
Front Suspension Adjustments
For the best ride, the suspension should be adjusted to use the full
travel of the shocks with occasional
light
bottoming. To determine if
your machine is using full travel, push the jounce bumper down on the
shock rod until it contacts the body and test ride the machine. The
bumper will move up on the rod in relation to the amount of travel that
was used during the ride. If the travel is full, the bumper will be seated
at the top of the rod.

Always verify ski alignment before making adjustments to the

see your dealer, as the camber adjustment may also be affected.
