Default FSW suspension setup

I know some people are concerned that they cant be competitive unless they are running a high dollar aftermarket suspension. You dont have to worry. You guys know that your Raptors, DS's. Cannons. 400 and whatever else have decent suspensions, the key is getting it dialed in correctly. Check out the following vidoes from the first FSW and you can see how a suspension can make or break you. Look at vids 9 and 10 first.

Me in the middle with good suspension. 703 not so good



The 703 has way more power, but he aint getting it down to the ground!


I dont mean to call out Vegas 650, but as you can see, his bike is so much more powerful than mine but the whoops are killing him. Im sure hes wants a rematch!...

There is plenty of time to get you motor and suspension dialed in and there are many natives ready to help!
