The Standard Velocity shock does not have a travel limit spacer as some have stated. It’s only the limiter strap that hinders travel.

RMK is the mountain chassis, KHAOS and PRO are the sub-models that determine which suspension and skid setup. Pro wants to drive forward with skis on the ground, khaos wants to pull the skis up and make you look cool in videos.

Did you ever try drilling and using the lower front mount hole that isn’t fully factory drilled?

I have dropped mine to the lower hole, it is a lil more playful for sure, i also tightened the front shock a bit

I might try that. I extended my Khaos limit straps as far as they’ll go and will hog down on FTS also. Once I go too far it’s usually end of season lol.

So the compression only PRO velocity shock does not have a spacer and therefore has the same length and or travel as the Khaos velocitys?

I drilled the holes and went to the lower pickup with lengthened Limit straps and left the FTS turned way up.
Too much… made the steering feel vague and dumb.
Took the FTS back down and it’s pretty much like it was on the upper hole with the FTS cranked.
I’d say low ROI for lower holes.
I wanted a 155 but got talked into a 165.
Life is still just fine.
