f7 suspension set up

i had a problem with the rear suspension on my 06 f7 sno pro since it was new. i have the blocks set at the 2nd setting and the sled will drop to the ground. if i get the shocks recharged will this fix the problem? when i had it at the dealer they said everything looked normal. i tried adjusting the front shock, but didn't seem to help, any answers?

Re: f7 suspension set up

i swapped the 3 springs out for heavier ones and got the rear shock revalved. it seems to be better now. i can run the adjuster blocks on the lightest setting, where as before had to run them on the stiffest. i rode a friends 05 with the stock springs and you can definately feel the difference.
