ATV suspension ajustements basics (CFMOTO CFORCE 1000) applicable to any brand.
May 25, 2021
Marc’s friend Carl bought a 2021 CFMOTO CFORCE 1000 and he loves it but… He finds the ride too harsh and did not know how to ajust the fully ajustable suspension on his ATV. So, having a friend (Marc) that is a mechanic, guess what happened!
So we go to basics. As said in the video, These are the basic terminology and what does what for beginners. Suspension ajustements will ALWAYS vary depending on the type of shock, type of machine and personal preference.
In this video we show settings for a smoother and confortable ride.
Alternate setting for even smoother ride on the CFMOTO Cforce 1000 series:
Preload: To minimum as in video
Compression:
Front +6 clicks from zero (fast)
Rear: +8 clicks from zero (fast)
Rebound:
Front: +4
Rear: +4
Note: setting below these might induce chatter in bumpy corners.

Watched the video. I have a 2019 800xc. Was wondering, if adjusting the spring like you did. Will it give you more ground clearance. As well as a smother ride.
You would lose a little ground clearance for comfort Ron.
