07 apex rtx what a great handling sled !

[zigoapex1]

I set up the suspension as per some guyz on this form(THANKS!)
50 psi front,limiter strap up one hole from bottom,rear sus preload
loosened all the way and then tightened 2 full turns,dampening,14 clicks out,spring preload block to to soft, and the weight transfer set 3/4 turn from middle(clockwise) and what a ride much better than my 06 er.
also i put on pilot skis and riding weight is about 240.

I'm running the exact same setup and my sled handles great too!

you want it to rail?....

drop it to about 35-40psi(A arms just LESS then level to ground when sitting flat) and add a 13mm swaybar.....mine rails like no other sled ive owned now....pilots with shapers too.

ive tried alot of different RIDE HEIGHTS on front end....and let me tell ya,every change makes BIG differences.....

we have had some awesome flat groomed trails lately,and i tried the front end very low,at about 25-30lbs,and it was NIGHT and DAY better in heavy cornering then even 40 lbs....you wouldnt think so but every little bit of front end HEIGHT difference makes huge changes in Center of Gravity,...this motor is HEAVY,and when you lower it even 1/4" it changes how these sleds handle....gotta love the floats for this.

just watch how low you go with the bumps....i keep mine LEVEL for everyday riding in bumps too...13mm bar from pioneer also maked huge diff...

Dan,

I have the Apex GT but I installed the 13mm Sway bar and I have to agree with you that this upgrade makes a huge difference in how flat the sled corners. It is a great upgrade for the Apex.
