For those of you still using the stock rear skid. What have you found to be the best all around setting for the limiter straps on your RX-1 mountain? I think mine are at 1" of thread showing below the nut.

If you have the MPI transfer kit what setting do you feel works the best for all around riding? Mine are set at the second to the most agressive now since last year I couldn't seem to get it to transfer because my front shock on the rear suspension was set all the way soft. I have it up a couple clicks now but the rear spring is still all the way soft. Should I back off the straps slightly?

If you have the MPI billet rear suspension mount brackets are you using the upper or lower hole for mounting your suspension? Their instructions say to use the upper hole but all the illustrations in them show the lower hole. I put mine in the lower hole and moved the bolt in the center of the rear suspension to the lower position as well. What are you guys using?

How about front shock springs? Is tighter less roll in corners or looser? I think tighter. Thanks guys. Powder Blue
 

Last year stock suspension limiter straps were at 1/2 inch. Do you have sway bar in still.
This year changing to holts skid kit , 159 billet rails, big wheel kit , took sway bar out ,MP transfer kit, 41 inch a-arms, and carbon fiber tunnel, may take a lot of tunning. hope to have pictures and first ride this weekend.
