I have a 2003 Sport Touring 550 2 up I am trying to get set up for the rear suspension and am looking for some help. Mainly I am wondering what to do with the extremem "sag" the sled has with two ppl on it riding trail. This sled is mainly for hauling two ppl plus gear out to the mtns. to snowboard. It pretty much sticks to the trail as it's not a powder or boondocking machine you know? Anyway, it's an xtra-10 rear skid with the indy select rear shock. So i'm thinking about turning the compression valve adjustment screw in (clockwise) a little to increase compression and stiffen the ride. The torrsion spring cam is in the up position which I believe would make the torrsion in the hardest position, meaning stiffest. Also i'm wondering about getting this sled to float a little more in the powder when I do take it off trail. There are two limiter straps in front and one in the back. The manual I have says nothing about adjusting the back limiter strap though. I recently adjusted the front limiter straps on my MM, I had them all the way out and by pulling them in about half way, the sled floated better. Would the same thing apply to this sled? Would I be able to tighten the rear limiter on this Polaris and improve it's float? The current position of the rear scissor stop is with the "marker dot" to the back of the sled. For the least weight transfer I believe I have to turn the stop with the "marker dot" or position marker to the front right? Or do I just need to revalve the rear indy select shock and get stiffer, thicker torrsion springs? Thanks for everyones help in advance!
