slobanshee Posted May 23, 2013 Report Posted May 23, 2013 Was hoping to get some advise. Got a stock stroke cheetah. Gas. Override. Ect. In a bone stock frame it wouldn't wheelie hardly at all. Over the winter I lightened the frame and stuff and now it is a handful. Has a +6 on it with 12 paddle ext. it's mostly a drag bike for the lady. But does get a little bit of playing around. Easiest way is toss a longer swinger I know. But was hoping to maybe find some way to keep it down without slowing it down. Quote
lms1977 Posted May 23, 2013 Report Posted May 23, 2013 could you stiffen up the rear suspension or raise the rear a touch/lower the front? or maybe go to a 10 or 11 paddle. possibly a different gearing choice. I am not a drag racer by any means but it helps on the hills we ride Quote
slobanshee Posted May 23, 2013 Author Report Posted May 23, 2013 When I stiffen the rear it hooks harder and stands up worse. Doesn't make a ton of power. Iv tried playing with gearing. It's not standing right off the line. Usually 50-60ft out Quote
Nightmare Posted May 23, 2013 Report Posted May 23, 2013 Too much tire. U can Manipulate that gearing. <br /><br />Sent from my SGH-T679 using Tapatalk 2<br /><br /> Quote

okbeast Posted May 23, 2013 Report Posted May 23, 2013 Less tire then play with gearing and launch RPM. +6 with 12 paddles will rarely stay down Quote
slobanshee Posted May 23, 2013 Author Report Posted May 23, 2013 Launch goes good. Starts coming up quickly on the 3-4 shift. She has been riding it out but letting off for it to settle is loosing ground Quote
Tech AS Posted May 24, 2013 Report Posted May 24, 2013 Strap a cynder block to the front bumper lol Quote
trickedcarbine Posted May 24, 2013 Report Posted May 24, 2013 Time to play with a lock up clutch. Quote
Jereme6655 Posted May 24, 2013 Report Posted May 24, 2013 im with tricked on this one. if its got a lockup id say maybe lightened the arms just a little more so it so hopefully it slips a little bit more...if it has no lockup id suggest getting one.....or tell her to get quick and good at feathering the clutch when its 1/2 way down the track....

slobanshee Posted May 24, 2013 Author Report Posted May 24, 2013 It has a lock up. I knew they where useful to tune off the line. But that far out away from the line? If its slipping there wouldn't it slip bad once into higher gears? Quote
