I like mine set to the narrowest....but the middle seems ok to.Where do you folks have your skis positioned? I am thinking of setting mine to the narrowest setting just so I can carve easier, but wondered what you all think.
thanks![/b]
Move the skis in before you loosen the limiter strap. When you loosen the limiter strap it lowers the skid and worsens the approach angle. Its surprising how much difference one hole on that limiter strap effects how well the sled gets up on top of the snow. Personally when I ride out west I prefer to loosen the front shock spring a few turns, suck the limiter strap up all the way and move the skis to the narrowest. Still handles great on the trail as the front end is more planted with more weight transfer to the front, planes out on top of the snow like a dream, and is super easy to carve. I also have a 2 wheel kit and the front outside idlers are removed. Most guys when they get on mine in the deep have a tendency to tip it all the way over the first time cause its turns over easier them most.In stead of changing your skis loosen your limiter strap on the rear suspention.you can even give the front shock[rear] a turn or too tighter.It makes a big difference.[/b]

look under your rear suspension, in the front you'll se a strap with holes in it, that's it. It changes the way the track hits the snow, as a rule, all the way out is better for hardpack & in more is better for pow, but the new m's seem to feel like they're in too far, My new M8 came all the way out & wish I could still get more out of it.[/b]
Narrow on my "weak" side, middle on the strong side.Where do you folks have your skis positioned? I am thinking of setting mine to the narrowest setting just so I can carve easier, but wondered what you all think.
