Crossover Ring Adjustment
Crossover adjustment will either soften up the ride by moving the crossover ring up toward the top of the shock, or you can move it closer to the black slide collar while machine is at rest on all 4 tires. By doing this you can help control body roll and make the machine handle long drawn out whoops by crossing over to lower stiffer spring sooner.
A GOOD STARTING POINT FOR CROSSOVER AND PRFEFERED TRAIL SETTING is while machine is at rest on all 4 tires 2inches from black slider collar
