First Day on the new Nitro

[mtnmaxpelican]

So I made the switch to 4 stroke and bought the new nitro. My only concerns is that it is a little sloppy handling wise. Also when dipped over to do a powder turn it seems to want to stay down.

Any words of wisdom with the suspension adjustments?
Any words of wisdom at all on this sled would be helpful. thankyyou

There is is definite learning curve to riding the Nytro in the powder. Just takes practice to get a feel for it. Once you get used to it, it will come pretty easy. At least that has been my experience. Also, if you want to stay with the stock front shocks, I found it helps a little to stiffen then up. The stock shocks are junk IMO but if you gotta stay with them, stiffening them helps at least for my riding style. Good Luck

still have your sway bar in?

I had the stock suspension last year and found that if you don't change out the shocks the sled handled better for me with the sway bar in. I agree with cranking up the preload on the front shocks, it helps. I also found that the stock rear skid would only behave with the limiter straps sucked all the way tight. I would start planning now for a new skid as soon as you can get one because the stock one leaves much to be desired.
