    Does any one know how to adjust the rear suspension rebound damping? Manual gives picture of adjustment screw at bottom of rear shock, right hand side, but no screw exists on my bike. Also for front forks compression damping it shows a removable cap on bottom of fork. Again, none exists. Any thoughts?

    The rear rebound adjuster hides behind the suspension link, usually on the left side unless someone has already rotated the shock bottom so it's on the right. The way I adjust it is by partially compressing the rear suspension with a strap or helper.
    Starting in 08 no compression adjusters were provided. They can be obtained from a Husky dealer or suspension shop for around 100$.

    Yeah the handbook shows it on the wrong side! Still need to be a contortionist to get to it...

    Found it! Poor design. Thanks. I find the factory settings too stiff. Any thoughts about settings to soften the trail rides? Sag has been set already.
