I am around 200. I am trying to get the best ride and understand this suspension better. I still feel to many smaller bumps at all speeds. It only feels 10% than stock setup. For the price of this I figured you will feel no small bumps. What would you do to get this right?
What does the shock angle do anyone know?
thanks

check the shock adjusters at the bottom. I'm 150 plus gear and mine is set to the lowest. The shock angle will change your ride height and probably the way it will handle bigger bumps. I believe the more vertical they are, the more they'll absorb. That also puts more pressure on the skis. More horizontal probably makes it better for the small stuff. I haven't played with my settings to much yet.

ic what you mean. Yea it sucks over the smaller bumps. I think having it more horizonal makes the track N sled take more of the abuse but not sure. I am thinking about this...

I am still waiting for my sled to thaw to check the setting to see where they are at. I would love to get a better ride out of this.

Now I can see the suspension. I have mine at the 1 setting on the spring. I am going to try number 3. I think I keep bottoming out on the jumps. Hope this works better.
To get the best ride I sold mine and bought an M10

m-10, yeah right you must have bumped your head 
anyway when you get your sled all thawed out, get your shock set first. when you get on the sled (not jumping on it) set the shock so it compresses about three to four inches, iv found that to be the happy medium set up. and depending on what kind of riding you are doing set your angle. the straighter up you go with your shock, the harder the rebound is gonna be. (sucks for trails) the more angle you shove to it the smoother its gonna be all around, but not good for jumping. one other thing to check is your transfer bar after you get those set. make sure unloaded that the cross member in the rear of the suspension is not at the front of the slot in the transfer bar.
