I just ordered a new RAVE and I will admit, your videos pushed me to a Lynx. I have been preaching about bar risers for years - happy to have someone agree with me.

[@cheecogregthegreat]

Hi Colton, Please do one on preload/sag settings, preferably following the recommendations of Lynx. Their recommended front preload/sag settings are missing from the owners manual and their masterclass videos.

[@sharondon7345]

Colton Strum...Thanks for taking the time to share your suspension set ups. Your experience and sharing is greatly appreciated. Cheers!

[@tomfriesen7668]

Where do you have the coil springs set to on the front shocks and also on the center shock?

[@FZ583]

Well I ordered a rave with 3 hours to go, cant wait.

[@FZ583]

I assume this was a pre production 2024 Rave, any idea if the production sleds got the same valving or if any changes were made? Just got my '24 and reading there manual sport shock settings and yours are way off compared to even the sport setting, I plan on trying both sport and your settings, I have both in my phone, thanks for the vids, love them, keep the content up!

[@bmorgan9344]

What would you recommend for fighting the sled in the turns (both in ice and sugary snow). I have the sag set factory recommendations and I am having major steering struggles. I am thinking I might have too much ski pressure but not really sure. Anything you recommend for me to try out and adjust. Thanks

Hi! I had the 2022 Lynx and rode it at the softest setting once received from the dealer cause I ride in nice trails in Quebec, had an XRS renegade this year Abe I bottomed our a few times so 2024 going back to the Rave, I’m 180lbs so from your perspective if I go back to my 2022 settings do you feel I’ll have the same riding feeling? Thanks in advance.

Hello, quick question? Where did you get the basic Lynx hat you have on? I ordered a 2024 xterrain and I want a Lynx hat but all of them are too flashy or weird. I just want some plain ones like yours that are nice and clean. Can’t find them on the site? If you could let me know I would really appreciate it. Thanks a lot

[@TheLeblancGroup]

Do you recommend the same setup for the 23 Xterain 850?

[@Martie806]

Any recommendations for sag on the brutal/easyride+?

[@NortheastHunter]

Do the models that are still in the previous Radian chassis get the new shocks as well?

[@Colt801]

The new calibration is for 2024 rave and Xterrain in North America

[@dereklindoo997]

Would you recommend going with the heavier spring on the rear if you're over 220 lb?

[@Colt801]

It might not hurt. It all depends how hard you ride. Next year I might spring up the center shock a bit. Then guys like us can play a little more with our high speed

[@dereklindoo997]

That was going to be my next question? I think I will probably upgrade both rear springs because like you said that center shock takes a ton of abuse... And I'm the 290-pound guy trying to be Blair Morgan or Tucker hibbert for the younger generation😂

[@FZ583]

Good vid, How do you like the 24 vs 23 overall? Radian 2 just that much better?

[@Colt801]

I really like the new brakes and the new seat! I didn’t know I needed a new seat until I rode this one!

[@FZ583]

The new brakes look sweet, lights, seat, all nice refinements.

[@Colt801]

@@FZ583 yes! The new brakes are amazing and the brake lever is even better! It’s a lot of small changes that make a big difference if that make sense, makes the overall ride a lot smoother and easier! The new lever is so ergonomically correct and the seat makes a huge difference with not a lot of change! Some times little things go further then drastic change!

[@tomtraynor5384]

@@Colt801 Think the new seat will fit the Radian1? Thanks.

[@Colt801]

Rovaniemi....great mascines as always, but the front end plastic/design is worst case ever!!!

[@KliqDon1983]

This sled makes no sense with a 1.25 track.

[@Colt801]

And how is that? It actually makes a lot of sense. The track has more zip and spin which in returns makes the sled take off faster and it has a higher acceleration and top speed. It actually pulled a little harder then the 1.5” I love it! But I am curious on your thoughts of why it doesn’t make sense to you.

[@KliqDon1983]

@@Colt801 the sled is an uncoupled 137 that's supposed to have some off trail capability. An 1.25 track has no off trail capability and is made strictly for trail riding. The 1.5 track makes way more sense to me.

[@KliqDon1983]

If you want a 1.25 track buy an mxz with a coupled rmotion x suspension and trail ride it.

[@Colt801]

@@KliqDon1983 you will not loose your off trail capabilities by dropping a 1/4” that is so small haha I personally had this sled in mid thigh to waist deep snow and I had a good time!! Now if you actually ride off trail a lot then this is not the machine for you, then you want the Xterrain that’s the machine for trail and more off trail.

[@KliqDon1983]

@@Colt801 why did BRP switch and not even give another track option? I'm not the only former Lynx rider upset to not see a 1.5 track option
