THE PERFECT FIT<br />

Front Suspension Adjustments<br />

WARNING<br />

Always verify ski alignment before making adjustments to the IFS.<br />

See page 126 to check alignment. If the skis are misaligned, see<br />

your dealer, as the camber adjustment may also be affected.<br />

For the best ride, the suspension should be adjusted to use the full<br />

travel of the shocks with occasional light bottoming. To determine if<br />

your machine is using full travel, push the jounce bumper down on the<br />

shock rod until it contacts the body and test ride the machine. The<br />

bumper will move up on the rod in relation to the amount of travel that<br />

was used during the ride. If the travel is full, the bumper will be seated<br />

at the top of the rod.<br />
