    Patented Slicast Caster Adjustment- adjusts your caster independently from your camber (US Patent # US 7,568,711)

    Slicast Feature Adjustment Explained-

    1. The aluminum Slicast feature has 11 settings, each giving you 0.5 degrees of caster change.
    2.  Each setting is labeled for ease of use.
    3. The Slicast rotates like a cam or bearing carrier, with the ball joint hole being on an eccentric (off center)
    4. To adjust the Slicast simply untighten the upper ball joint jam nut and pop out the Slicast cam
    5. Turn the cam to the desired rotation (caster setting) and press back in, tighten your jam nut, & ride with the new Slicast setting.

    How does the Caster Setting affect the handling of your ATV?
    The Caster Setting affects the handling of the ATV as it corners or goes in a straight line. Rotating the top ball joint toward the rear of the ATV makes the ATV handle better in a straight line. Rotating the top ball joint toward the front of the ATV, makes the ATV corner better.

    What Slicast setting is best for me?
    There is not an overall best setting. The Slicast Cam should be adjusted to reflect your unique riding style, the terrain you are riding in, and the type of riding you are doing.
