Well, I went with the 2's being I'd like to be able to run more air for bottoming resistance, yet have a softer initial feel over stutter bumps. Dale Fett recommended them, and we both agreed, especially being that the FX Nytro has a heavy front end due to the engine's placement over the front, so we'll see soon enough how they fair out. I plan on running 75 psi in each shock and seeing how they compare to my current 65psi reading. I'll report back when I get a chance to try em out

You're not even going to wait for the results of this scientific endeavor? Why, you are a maniac.

I choose to have mine re-valved. What was found inside was a .040 piston, which is the smallest orfice out there! Which means it doesnt compress unless it is getting beat all the time! I had a larger one installed- it was either a .050 or .060. 2nd part was the shim stack was a single stack, so a multi stack was put in. It will be interesting to see how they ride, but i suggest at the least if you have the stock Floats re-valved and a different shim stack. I am also going to install the Muffinworks Resi's just to increase the air chamber. Anyone know the size that these Resi's are?

Approx. 3.7 in3 in the chamber + whatever is in the lines; or approx. 28% volume increase.

Here is a graph for 28% volume increase.

Uhhhh yeah, it was getting wayyy too technical for me.
I just want something that works decent in the chop and doesn't cost too much since I'm not looking to spend much more on the sled. I'll be ordering my next sled with suspension built just for me and all the goodies under the hood I can wish for

So, the snow is flying in some places, not mine yet! But, anybody actually ridden a sled with the 2nd generation cannisters yet?

I actually went in another direction and spent more $$$ on the sled, ended up selling the Fett Bro's Air 2's to a guy on HCS. I had an incredible ride on my RTX yesterday with the Float X shocks up front, and man, what a difference in these shocks over the standard Floats ! The Float X shocks were soooo smooth compared to my previous Floats, I don't know why I didn't get these last year when I read the positive reviews.

Hey thanks, did you ever ride your sled with the F2's????
I have a 09 RTS SE, does that have Fox X's, or am I missing something??

Nope, never even tried them. As soon as I saw a set of Float X shocks for sale, I went for it. You have the best shocks available on a stock FX Nytro already, leaps and bounds better than any aftermarket reservoirs IMO.
