Hey guys. Just bought a 2005 Yamaha RS Rage 121” track. Seems pretty tippy and daughter is scared to ride it. Any way I can make this less tippy? Expecially around corners.

Thanks
 
What is the setup on the 121 Vector or 136 Rage? Skis, carbides, sway bar, limiter strap etc...
 
stock sway bar? i know my 05 rx felt tippy until i put the 13 mm bar into it.
 
Video on tuning the Proaction Rear suspension

On the front end , I would get the sled off the ground and loosen the springs on the shocks until they are just about loose . When you set the sled back down on the ground the "A" arms should be level not tilted or Pitched upwards . I'm guessing you might have some bad darting going on with skis . Run a straight edge along the track and out to the front of the skis . Measure from the straight edge to the front carbide bolt then measure to the back bolt . You want the front bolt pointing out about a 1/4" max on both sides . " Not" toed in like this / \ .

An important aid in helping with Darting is shimming the ski. The link above will show you and walk you thru it .

I don't know much about the Pro action rear suspension but if you daughter is light weight set every thing to as soft as it gets and work you way stiffer .
With your daughter sitting on the sled the rear should sag at the back bumper at least 2" from no one sitting on the sled .

It will be a great sled When you get it figured out .
