I Have A 1999 Polaris Indy Long Track This Track Is Also 21 " Wide. I Am Looking For Advice On Suspension Set Up To Help With Poor Steering While mannouvering At Low Speed.

Stiffen the suspension so it's at the correct weight rating with 2 people on it. I think most all 2-up's have a setting on thier suspension for "Single" or "Double" riders. shane

The long, wide, track is never going to handle real well, especially compared to a std. 121" set up. When you add weight to it, it only make it harder for those skis to find enough bite to turn it. Guessing you probably already know all that.

The only way you are going to make it turn better is to add/transfer weight to the skis. I don't know what the suspension has for adjustments, but I would look at the spring on the front of the skid, remove as much tension/preload from it as possible.

you could tighten up the front limit strap on the rear suspenion.That would give you more ski pressure
