THE PERFECT FIT
Front Suspension Adjustments
The tension at which the shock coil spring is set is called spring preload.
For the best ride, the spring preload should be set as low as possible to
use the full travel of the ski shock, with occasional light bottoming. To
determine if your machine is using full travel of the ski shock, push the
jounce bumper down as far as it will go on the shock rod and test ride
the machine. The bumper will move up on the rod in direct relation to
the amount of travel. If the shock travel is full, the bumper will be seated
at the top of the shock.

WARNING

camber adjustment may also be affected.
