Good to hear you are headed in the right direction.

Looking through my notes to see what I have on my FTS for springs on my Elka Stage 5's that are on my other LTX 137". Elka Stage 5 FTS: F4.0X52 Tender / F4.0X152 = 224 lbs/in (On my 137") I really like the dual rate spring combo that is on my XTX with the RR springs at 140/250.

The setup on my front track shock is the same dual rate spring setup found on the RR's. Part #'s: 3704-035 (140#) and 3704-039 (250#) Do you have dual rate springs on your FTS? If so, what are they?

Love the Triple Downs. They are so hard to get though and made to order so the lead time is a long time.

Stain, here a a few different pictures I have from different angles, so hopefully you can get an idea. I think when I sit on my sled the a-arms are parallel to the ground.

My sled is up at the cabin, but let me see if I have any pictures from this year that show the front a-arms. Stay tuned as I look.

Sharing my settings on my '25 XTX LE to see if it helps as I absolutely love my XTX and the handling. I enjoy the fun factor and the comfort of the rear end suspension compared to my '23 LTX LE. I don't ride my LTX LE any more as I just love the XTX. We have a ton tight twisties here in...

Sorry, my limiter strap is stock position, which I believe is 1 hole from all the way out.

On my XTX LE, with my FOX Kashima QS3R's w/Elka Dual Rate Springs on the Fronts and FOX Kashima QS3 w/Dual Rate springs on the Center shock, here is how mine is set up. Fronts: Preload is just 1 full turn from loose Center: Limiter Strap all the way out. Spring Preload is 2 turns from loose...

Absolutely love my setup! It's so nice have 5 pre-set options to choose from and switch so easily from the handlebars as conditions change.

Report back on how you like the Elka's on your Riot. I still have my Elka Stage 5's sitting on my 2019 LTX that is getting zero use, however, I am really liking the Kashima QS3R's w/IQS on the front shocks with Elka Dual Rate Springs, the Kashima QS3R w/IQS for Rear that I had Hygear do, and...

I was wondering if the Catalyst spindles would fit on the Sidewinder/Viper chassis. I wonder what differences there is between the 2020+ spindles vs the Catalyst? Thanks for sharing.

Good comparison Stain on the differences between the sleds. Good comparison Stain on the differences between the sleds. I'm not sure if the Riot is valved differently than the XTX or not, but I absolutely love the valving on the rear with the IQS. The ride is so damn smooth. Now, for this...

Ha! I felt the same way with my XTX LE. Amazing sled. I hardly ride my LTX LE anymore because I love the XTX LE. Now that the '25 came with Power Steering, it honestly for me, is the best sled. I put the QS3R's on the front and had Cannondale put the iQS on them. I will be looking to do...

Yes. They are the same. XTX, you just have to flip it when installing it.

I replaced the center shock day 1 on my '25 XTX with the QS3 Kashima with dual rate springs. Loved it. You do have to install the shock with the resevior on the bottom vs the top like on the 137"

Do it Stain. I like the wrap too. Simple and a retro look. I always personalize my sled almost every year with a new wrap. Feels like a new sled then. :). Just get a 6 pack and take your time. Not hard at all to put a wrap on. Use some heat once you apply and it will turn out great.

Ha! No idea! I was pretty upset the track didn't last long at all on a new sled. Very excited to see how the Ice Arrowhead performs though.

I put on the 1.3 Ice Arrowhead on my '25 XTX this summer after my Ice Cobra 1.6 at 1,000 was destroyed. Lost a ton of lugs and one side was completely tore. Anxious to try the 1.3 Arrowhead.

Thanks @cannondale27 for the quick service on the QS3R with iQS with the Elka Dual Rate Springs for my '25 XTX LE 146". Can't wait to use these this upcoming winter. Now I just need to figure out if there is an option for QS3R's for the Rear Shock on the 146". Thanks @MrSled for sharing...
