Heavy steering

[2008 Nytro RTX]

Why is this sled so hard to steer? The front shocks are set at 60 psi and I have stock skis and carbides. I also have 144 studs,Why is it doing this? People say the C&A skis make it harder.

I have to wonder if some of it is the angle of the steering post....more horizontal than other sleds I've had, putting the handlebars more in a position like the steering wheel in your car. Instead of the usual push the left handgrip away & pull the right towards you, it's gonna be more like move the left up, & move the right down. I know this isn't the whole answer by any means.......but I also have struggled with the heavy steering...........

Could it just be the rider foward sled?

you are gonna have to adjust your suspension mine came from the dealer set very stiff. also make sure the toe on your skis are set right at 1/4 toe out

check out this link for adjusting the toe

the stock yami ski's have a deep keel which contribute to the hard steering. mine was a PITA when i first got it. i changed to pilot 5.7's and it made the sled turn with ease. by far the best thing ive done to the sled. ideal ski's for trail riding, but not for powder. i've also heardman people complain that c&a's are hard to turn

My C&A's made it steer better.. Pull your front limiter strap up to hole number "3"

NB, pulling up the straps does what for the suspension or steering? thanks

shifts the wieght to the front skis also go up in compresion on the rear shock helps with weight transfer
