THE PERFECT FIT

Front Suspension Adjustments

Independent Front Suspension (IFS)

Break in the suspension for about 150 miles (240 km) before making

any fine-tuning adjustments.

Settings will vary from rider to rider, depending on rider weight, vehicle

speed, riding style, and trail conditions. We recommend starting with

factory settings and then customizing each adjustment individually to

suit rider preference. The machine should be methodically tested, one

change at a time, under the same conditions (trail and snow conditions,

vehicle speed, riding position, etc.) after each adjustment until the best

ride is achieved.

IFS Components

1. Skis
2. Front shocks and springs
3. Rod ends
4. A-arms

IFS Adjustment Options

• Front shock spring preload
• Optional springs
• Optional shock valving
• Compression damping
