180 lbs on Nytro XTX.

Lowered ride height in front by 1 3/4" on each shock. One click compression on each and once click rebound on each. Center shock lowered by 0.25", TS med, compression is 1 higher then stock.

Updated the files in the second post of the thread with new info from NLVMAX. Anybody wanting to have their sled added should submit the info in the same order as listed in the file, either here or via PM.

After a season on the sled and countless adjustments, I believe I have a pretty good set up: added to first post attachment.

145lbs rider plus gear ... ???? what set up 2 start with????

I just bought a BRAND NEW in the crate (still) RTX '09. I am a lighter small guy 145 lbs plus gear, I like a softer plusher ride .. and I want an initial sit up before i go out...

Any ideas tips or advice.. I looked at the spreadsheet only one guy in Ontario might be applicable...

90% on trail riding, usually rough trails at times..
aggressive hard rider
Likes to keep skis on the ground don't mind a bit of lift on inside ski..

are the PSI for front fox floats based on the sled on the ground i.e. weight of sled on shocks or up in the air?

Thanks,

Ryan

You check the air pressure on the ski shocks with the sled up in the air...I say for your weight go 50psi and take it from there.

If you want your skis planted, perhaps pull up on the front limiter strap a hole or two, maybe reduce the center shock spring pressure to help as well.

Torsion springs, you might even get away with having them on soft...try it and if you bottom the suspension often, then bump it up to medium.

Bring your manual, or shock settings card, and write down your settings and adjust a bit at a time, taking note of what adjustments are doing well for you.

And definitely familiarize yourself with your owner's manual.

Nytro Suspension

I have an 08 NYTRO. I broke my shoulder in Jan 09 riding... I tried to figure out why I got thrown and after much research I found out that some of the things that contributed to the incident were inherent suspension issues.. Obviously they redesigned the suspension for 09 but here is what I have done to improve handling...

I went to Hygear suspensions and got triple springs and a rear spring bushing and also tightened the rear limiter one notch.

The handling is much improved and I also got the Clutch Spring from Stormin Norman which really made a significant difference to smoothing out the power and also making the clutch and engine braking a non factor...

No one's adding their settings, so no update.

Since no one has posted any XTX settings, I decided to make a new spreadsheet with XTX specific setups. Please update it is as needed. The settings I have listed were gathered from posts throughout this thread.
