Hi guys. Been a member from the beginning and contribute little but read often and appreciate all the info. I am looking for some sound advice on suspension set up. My riding style has changed since getting the RX1 and I find myself doing long distance trips, more touring than hard charging trail riding. Nonetheless, when you get into the tight stuff it can be a handful. Last week I rode the Snow Challenge loop and did 1600 kms in 5 days. I thought I had set the sled up properly for the trip. I pulled up the limiter strap and removed almost all transfer on the rods and dropped the fra to max setting(an LB tip I believe). On the front I added longer links and preload is about 50% It was better but I found that the sled reacted best when I leaned in the opposite direction of the turn. This forced the outside ski (precision) to dig in and turn. Although it did have some significant lift using this method.

Any tips that do not include buying new shocks/ springs?
