do you have trouble keeping the front end down? you don't really want any longer that what will keep you from flipping, or you will sacrifice handling.that being said, if you plan on porting in the future, +4 or less can still handle jumps pretty nicely

Im in the same boat as you, I have a good buddy that swears up and down that a +4 is the way to go if you want to both play and drag in the dunes. The guy that built my bike actually recommended a +8 for mine because its so damn hard to keep my front end down. So Im still thinking whether or not I just split the difference and go with a +6 or stick with my buddys advice and go with the +4 because a +8 would definately take the dunability out of the bike.

you try different paddle and/or gearing combos? too much paddle and too low gearing can make you jump up, but fall short in the long run. if you want to run 4 and keep the handling, that's where i would go first.

I always used a stock swinger with more mods than your bike. Didn't need a +4 till I built my 4 mil. IMO, I wouldn't go any longer than +4 with 8 or 9 paddles. Have you changed sprocket sizes. They can make a big difference also.
