THE PERFECT FIT

Front Suspension Adjustments
Before fine-tuning adjustments are made, break in the suspension for
approximately 150 miles (240 km) and re-grease all suspension parts.
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 under the same conditions (trail and snow
conditions, vehicle speed, riding position, etc.) after each adjustment
until the best ride is achieved. Adjustments should be made to one
area at a time in order to properly evaluate the change.
All snowmobile suspensions have a front and a rear suspension, each
of which has adjustment options.
Independent Front Suspension (IFS)
The IFS is made up of the skis (1),
front shocks and springs (2), and
the components that connect these
parts to both the steering, such as
the tie rods (3), and to the machine
itself, such as the trailing arms (4).
Front suspension adjustments
include shocks, springs, toe, and
camber.
