Hi does any one know how to adjust the suspension on a 98 yamaha xtc 700.
I would like to make it a little stiffer it is too soft.

I have an excellent Yamaha video about tuning the Proaction rear suspension I'm uploading to my site as we speak. It's a large file (almost a gig) but is split via Winrar for easy download. I'll post when it's done.

you can start by moving your FRA to soft,A position. if you need more
adjust your main spring some too,how is ski pressure??

Here ya go folks... It's large.. You need all ten in the same folder and it will automatically put them together into one file when extracted.

WinRar is free just Google for it..

Instead of posting ten different links just change "part01" to "part02" etc up through "part10".

I will upload the video as one file overnight for those of you who have a big pipe and can get it all at once.

It is in the A postion now if I move it to the b postion that would make it stiffer would it. Ski pressure seems to be ok it darts alot though

if it's in A now and too stiff you may need to adjust main spring,whats your wieght???

you want a 50/50 gap in your tranfer rods when your sitting on the sled.
