THE PERFECT FIT
Suspension Adjustments
Shock Compression Damping (RMK/ASSAULT RMK)
The primary adjustment for overall vehicle balance is RTSS preload.
Perform this adjustment first. See page 50. After adjusting RTSS
preload to your satisfaction, compression damping adjustments can be
made to control ride quality and bottoming resistance.
800 RMK Damping
Make the adjustments in half-turn
increments, then test ride.
To stop bottoming, turn the damping
screw clockwise one half-turn, then test
ride. Repeat the adjustment until
bottoming stops and the desired ride
quality is achieved.
ASSAULT RMK Damping
Compression damping can be adjusted at
the front suspension and at the rear track
shock. Make adjustments in 2-click
increments, then test ride. When adjusting
the front suspension, always adjust both
clickers equally.
To stop bottoming of the front or rear
suspension (stiffer ride), rotate the
clicker(s) clockwise two clicks (as viewed
from the top of the clicker), then test ride.
Repeat the adjustment until bottoming
stops and the desired ride quality is
achieved.
For a more plush ride at the front or rear
suspension, rotate the clicker(s) counter-
clockwise two clicks, then test ride.
Repeat the adjustment until the desired
ride quality is achieved.
