THE PERFECT FIT
IQ Rear Suspension Adjustments
Torsion Spring Preload
To adjust rear torsion spring preload, rotate the three-position cam using
the engine spark plug tool. Adjustment is easiest when the cam is
rotated from low to medium, and then to high. Rotating directly from
low to high will require significantly more effort.
Different rate torsion springs are available if a firmer ride is desired. See
your dealer for more information.
Limiter Strap Position (Ski Pressure)
Ski pressure is set at the factory to
deliver the optimum balance
between ride and handling. If a
rider prefers more ski pressure for
improved steering performance,
adjustments can be made to the
front limiter straps. Tighten the
straps to increase ski pressure.
Loosen the straps to reduce ski
pressure.
1. Remove the nuts and flat
washers from the upper limiter
straps.
2. Relocate the straps to the desired position.
3. Reinstall the nuts and washers. Tighten securely.
