Rear Suspension Adjustments Shock Compression Valving THE PERFECT FIT RMK Standard Rear Track Shock The standard RMK rear track shock is an Arvin MPV Select shock that allows for adjustments to the compression valving. Adjustments are made by turning the adjustment screw located near the base of the shock. In half-turn increments, turn the screw clockwise to increase compression valving and stiffen the ride. Turn the screw counterclockwise to reduce compression and soften the ride. There are approximately three full turns of adjustment available. If bottoming continues after the screw has been turned fully clockwise, the torsion spring should be adjusted (see page 44). Return the screw to its original starting position after the torsion spring has been adjusted. Adjustment Screw 45
