THE PERFECT FIT
Suspension Quick Set-Up Guide
Step 2: Adjust the rear spring to tune vehicle balance.
After the initial test ride, make adjustments to the rear shock spring to
improve vehicle balance. Increasing preload will increase ski pressure
and result in less weight transfer, flatter cornering and more precise
steering response. Decreasing preload will decrease ski pressure and
result in more weight transfer, or less weight on the skis when accelerat-
ing.
Step 3: Adjust shock clickers for ride quality.
After making spring adjustments, adjust shock clickers to control bot-
toming. Turning a clicker counter-clockwise decreases damping for a
softer ride. Turning a clicker clockwise increases damping for a stiffer
ride and less bottoming.
NOTICE:
Always adjust the clicker at least one click below full stiff (full clock-
wise) or shock damage will occur.
Test ride the snowmobile and continue making spring and clicker
adjustments until you achieve the perfect ride.
TIP:
Initially, heavier riders may want to set the shock clickers 2-4 clicks higher
than lighter riders.
