THE PERFECT FIT

Front Suspension Adjustments

Independent Front Suspension (IFS)

Factory settings, combined with user adjustments to the rear shock

spring, should be all that’s necessary to provide the best riding experi-

ence for most riders. If all rear shock spring adjustments have been

exhausted and rider weight is at the very high or very low weight range

for the stock spring, additional adjustments are possible to the IFS.
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 snowmobile should be methodically tested,

one change at a time, under the same conditions (trail and snow condi-

tions, vehicle speed, riding position, etc.) after each adjustment until the

best ride is achieved.
Break in the suspension for about 150 miles (240 km) before making

adjustments to the front suspension.
