HELP with cornering

[marc]

Went out riding this friday and had a hard time cornering , the sled would get up on one ski making it hard to handle. the same would happen when coming out of the woods had on the gas and up on one ski. Is there some thing I need to do maybe to my setup to help keep the skis on the snow. Was riding with my bud 02 viper and mine 03 RX1 both some what stock....and he didnt seem to had this problem , had a hard time keeping up with him...any help would be great......

flat rate springs or remove all preload on current springs. Raise up front end and loosen top nut on the springs until you have about a 1/4" gap above the spring. Longer links and a 13mm swaybar. Simmons Skis. Also, this sled handles different, reduce power when approaching a turn, then power up before entering a turn, hold steady power through out turn. all of the above will greatly reduce ski lift. Once you get used to it, it won't bother your much, it would be hard to filp it over.

Lift up the front of the sled off the ground and loosen the the top nut 1/4 gap and let the sled down. what about my straps or transfer rods. sled hooks like a bear.. could that have some thing to do with it...and I dont have the up dated swaybar links...

In addition to the front ski springs and can reduce your transfer and that will help keep the front down when you are on the throttle.

BEEN THER DONE ALL THAT.C&A SKIS ARE WORTH MORE THAN ALL THE OTHER CHANGES -ADJUSTMENTS COMBINED.

It seems to me that these progressive springs want preload and you can use straps to adjust ski pressure. My 03 doesn't tip it falls over without preload on ski springs.

went out this sunday and did over 400kms and buy adjusting the front springs and starps, I had very little ski lift in the corners. Think next year will up date to the bigger sway bar and links... thanks guys...
