When you say putting FRA to maximum,does that mean position C=hard?
Thanks!

 

[LazyBastard]

Um.. YES

Thanks LazyBastard I,ll give it a try.The sled rides good now it just steers hard,has way too much ski pressure.I tryed letting out the limiter straps but it still steers hard.
Other than the limiter straps is there other ways to get less ski pressure?

 

[LazyBastard]

To decrease ski pressure:

Loosen ski springs,
tighten CENTER spring,
let out limiter straps,
set control rods for more weight transfer,
sit back further on the seat.

I did tighten center spring,didnt change much,I'll try backing off the front ski springs.If I sit any farther back on the seat I wont be able to reach the brake. :lol:

The one major thing that I remember from when I still had 121", was that it was never possible to carve a corner and give it gas at the same time. One of the many great things about going 144" - it gives you MUCH better control over the ski pressure, set it with tools and it works with any amount of gas, PLUS, if you REALLY open it up, it still has enough to lift both skis up off the snow.

I can power into corners HARD with NO PUSHING.

I had the same problem! Go to the tech page and do the shim thing on the robber stopper underneath the spindle. It works....also I set the transfer rods at full and added another small spacer to the existing one at the bottom of the transfer rods. Really works!

I did the shims on the skis allready, I,ll try the transfer rod spacer.thanks for the help.

RX1, You added another shim under the ski? How thick? Plus you added more spacer to the transfer rod? How thick? I just cut mine in half according to LB set up, did I f&^* up? I have my trasfer set to 2 lines.

Lazy B if you could repost what you think would work on the Warrior here (under supensions ) it would be apreciated

Chris Velardi I live in stockbridge so we ride alot of the same trails.The best setup I have found on the Warrior for me. (160 lbs)

front shocks 15 threads showing
Middle shock tighten it two turns from stock
rear shock #2 from the lowest setting
FRA set to soft
clicker turned out 10 clicks from full hard
trasfer rods showing two lines
one inch of thread showing on top of the limiter straps

This the best the sled has rode in 1800 miles,thank you LazyBastard for getting me headed in the right direction. 8)

Touched or Lazzy B,
How do you think adding 60 lbs (to your 160lb riding weight wiould) efect your settings?

 

[Indy]

check out my recent post. Best thing to do to the rear skid is trash it! Buy a M10!

When you add weight, you really want to increase your preload and compression dampening.

Sorry, but I really can't comment on warrior setup, since I don't have a warrior to try anything on.
