FAQ: Q. What should my ride height be?? A.
There is no magic number - we run as low as 4 inches for
Flat Track and as high 10 inches for Dunes. We run anywhere in
between that depending on the quad and the application. One
big problem is when someone try's to reach some magic number
with out the right combination of parts - they end up with no
preload on the rear spring or a lot of preload on the rear
spring - either way it may not handle nearly as well as it
could. We always start with 3 turns of preload
in the rear spring and then adjust the front preload to
achieve a balanced ride height. Q.
What should my race sag be?? A.
Again there is no magic number - it depends on the available
travel and the application. My personal XC quad has about 4
inches and I have 11.5 inches of wheel travel. With some
setups it is possible to end up with a quad to tall or to low
if you are chasing a magic number since the travel is higher
or lower then it should be due to poorly matched components.
