THE PERFECT FIT

FAST M-10 ACE Suspension Adjustments

The FAST M-10 ACE (Adjustable Control Electronics) is a new

feature available for some FAST M-10 rear suspensions. It enables a

rider to easily adjust the suspension for weight and riding style.
The M-10 ACE is an electronically controlled module that replaces the

standard M-10 FRA. The ACE changes the rear shock motion ratio by

moving the lower shock pivot point a total of 1 1/4 inches, the same

amount of adjustment as the standard FRA. A gauge on the console

displays the current position of the shock, from soft to firm or

somewhere in between.

M-10 ACE Settings

A switch labeled “ESC” on the left-hand control assembly is used to

adjust the position of the ACE module. The following instructions

describe all the features programmed into the ACE module.
1. By pressing the left hand control switch up (firm) or down (soft)

one time, the lower pivot moves .14 inch, giving the operator a

total of nine distinct positions. The console gauge will show the

current ACE position.

2. If the soft or firm switch is pressed more than one time in

succession, it will adjust as many increments as the switch is

pressed. The electronics will “do the math” for the user to

minimize travel time. For example, if the rider pushes “firm”

twice, and then “soft” three times, the unit will move to one

position softer than the current position.

3. If the soft or firm switch is held for five seconds or more, the ACE

will adjust to the far end of the travel, corresponding to which

button was pressed.

4. A fail-safe mode has been programmed into the controller to

protect the electronics and to notify the operator of a system

malfunction. If the module cannot adjust the suspension after one

of the switches has been pressed (most likely due to an obstruction

or heavy ice buildup), the controller will enter a failure mode,

which is indicated by the gauge needle moving rapidly between

soft and firm. This mode will continue indefinitely and is reset

when the engine is turned off and restarted. If this mode is

encountered, we recommend that the operator turn off the engine

and inspect the unit for any obstruction or ice buildup on the shock

or module.
