Had the (2) rear shocks out to Pioneer Performance for revalve over the summer. Glad I did. Takes alot more for the sled to bottom. I have it set 5 clicks. The ride is a whole lot stiffer, which is what I'm looking for when banging around the Tug Hill trail system mid-afternoon.Also put on woody dual carbides and the sled has 0 dart.
My friend has the same sled without the carbides or shock job and it makes a huge difference in the ride.
Rode in a group with (2) artic cat F7, 2 MXZ 600. The one artic cat had a boon docker kit and pipe and my stock apex pulled away from a start and especially around 70. Could easily blow by the 600 on any straight away. None of those sleds could even come close in the high speed or low speed bumps.
I remember why I love this sled.

I have to third that. Bruce did mine also on my '07 RTX. Rear susp no longer blows through travel. I would say the action is very progressive. Seems more supple in the initial travel, but firms up in the larger moguls. Per Bruce I set my transfer rods at 25-30mm (with me on seat). Didn't count my comp. clicks yet. Also running 60lbs. in the front Floats with the 13mm sway bar. Excellent job.
