APEX GT GYT SHOCKS

[sandy8657]

The Apex GT has Factory GYT front shocks.
I have the rebound set right in the middle setting,
I have the dampening set right in the middle setting.

I'm looking for input from guys who have put some
miles on their Apex GT's , and to let me know what seems
to work the best on the front shocks!

Thanks!!!!

I have them on my Attak, so this might not be relavant to your setup. I ahve fiddled a lot with the setings, and the best I have found came from MrSled. 2-3 clicks from full soft for compression, and 3-4 clicks from full soft for rebond. I know it sounds crazy, but it works! Stutter bumps disappera and there is still enough damping to handle g-out and square edge hits. I do have Powderhounds on my Attak, and they are lighter than the stock ski, as well as being more flexible. Just what is working for me

everyone likes, and sets there machine up differently. i shortened my limiter strap1 hole, pilots w/6' no name wear bars. with the compression all the way to A(hard) i backed them off 10 clicks. the rebound all the way to A(hard) i backed them off 11 clicks. I loosened my front springs till they rattle then tightened them 3 revolutions, lightly take a screwdriver and count the threads between the 2 collars in the shock. i have 23 threads in between the 2 aluminum collars. it lowers the front end for better handling. now i added a 13 mil sway bar. much better !!! loosened all the compression to softest, and 3 clicks harder on the rebound. i will still need to fine toon it, but i'm close. 13mil sway make the front end a little firmer, but still in the great ride range.

How much shock travel are you guys using up?
