Problem
|
Solution
|
| Rear suspension bottoms-out too easily |
-
Adjust torsion spring preload
-
Increase rear shock compression damping by turning screw clockwise
-
Increase torsion spring wire diameter (see your dealer)
|
| Rides too stiff in the rear |
-
Check for binding suspension shafts and grease all pivot points
-
Adjust torsion spring preload
-
Decrease rear shock compression valving by turning screw counter-clockwise
(if Indy Select shock)
-
Change to lighter valving (if FOX®shock)
-
Change track tension
|
| Too much weight transfer when climbing |
|
| Too little weight transfer when climbing |
|
| Machine darts from side to side |
-
See your dealer for ski alignment inspection
-
Make sure spindles and all steering components turn freely
-
Check for excessive play in steering assembly (see your dealer)
-
Ensure skags are straight on skis (see your dealer)
-
Adjust torsion spring preload
-
Check rail slide/replace if worn
-
Reduce ski pressure: Reduce IFS spring preload or reduce rear
torsion spring preload
|
| Front end pushes |
-
Check for worn skags
-
Adjust torsion spring preload
-
Check for binding front suspension shafts and steering components,
grease all pivot points (elevate front of machine)
-
Increase IFS preload (if equiped)
-
Install single skag (see your dealer)
-
Rotate RRSS to high position
|
| Steering is heavy |
-
Make sure spindles and all steering components turn freely
-
See your dealer for ski alignment inspection
-
Check skags and skis for damage
-
Reduce ski pressure: Increase front track spring preload, reduce
IFS spring preload by adjusting cam, reduce rear torsion spring preload
