I know there is the little block that rotates in the skid and it has a few different thicknesses that effect the way weight transfer and how much the skis lift up. Which setting will keep the skis on the ground the most when accelerating? Is that more transfer or less transfer? Im having a little problem accelerating in a turn and the skis coming up and thinking a little transfer adjustment would help, just don't know which way to go.

The thicker up go the less transfer you will have. But u can also go to far and you will end up with spinning to much out of the corners. you just have to play with them and find that sweat spot. Never had them on this sled but had them on all my poo's. they do work though.

What do you mean by never had them on this sled? Isn't there coupling blocks on these sleds?

No ther isn't ant coupling blocks. I put in a set from my Fusion and need less to say the won't be coming back out!!! Huge improvement and allot easier to adjust. I bought a new set to replace the ones I stole and it cost me like $48 bucks for the mounts and blocks and another $2 at the hardware store for a allen head bolt and nyloc. Well worth it

I think he's looking at the torsion spring blocks. Is it a 3 sided block your looking at?
Which model Nytro do you have?

I have the 09 rtx se but I didn't find or look for them yet. I know the Rev I had, had them and thought I saw some white blocks near the rear of the skid on the inside rails earlier in the year. I guess I was wrong.

Not necessarily, the micro fische shows them, but I dont have a SE to compare. I know they show them on some other models that dont actually have them. If you have them, turn the blocks so that the thicker side is facing forward, this will lessen your weight transfer and help with your ski lift problem.
Also, try tightening the front limiter straps one hole.

No my SE did not have them from the factory... the white block is just a stopper and is not adjustable. But you can buy adjustable coupler blocks from ulmer racing. I bought them but have not adjusted them yet so I can't give a review on them yet.

This is SO Yamaha style!!sleddingfarmer said:the white block is just a stopper and is not adjustable.
Every other manufacturer has had adjustable stoppers/coupler blocks for 8 plus years. Yamaha finally copies the other's suspension design,but doesnt think its important to make their stoppers adjustable, even though the cost difference would be next to nothing!! And the benifits of being able to adjust weight transfer/coupling is extremely important!I hate bashing more then anything, but Im getting more and more frustrated with Yamaha's lack of meaningful progress in the suspension department. A great motor and fit/finish is only going to keep their market share for so long!
Sorry about the rant, get some adjustable blocks from a Poo or Doo if your are still having issues with too much ski lift.
