 |
|
| Anyone go up to black duck valley very often? I have been up about a million times on my KX450 but only the last 2 weekends have I gone up on the raptor. Had a ball on the moto x track (the one with the 80 footer where the gazebo is). But geez I am sore. Was getting about half way across the 80 but wasn't sure about trying to clear it. Has anyone done it?? |

Heaps of guys hit the 80fter. A few hit the 100fter on track 1. I get around there a bit with friends and occassionally with Dad and my Brothers, they are all on bikes so always good to see a quad or 2 out there.  _________________ Mic

| I can clear the 80 on my KX450, but does anyone do it on their quads? |

I did it on my 400EX.
I think I know why that quad didnt last like we hoped.
We will have to meet up for a ride out there one day. Are you coming to Roma to race/watch the titles?  _________________ Mic

| Maybe be in for Roma, depends on work as usual. So tell me, when jumping on a quad, does it control like an MX bike? When you hit the rear brake, does it bring the fron t down, and when you accelerate does it lift the front? I haven't had to correct on any jumps yet, but in case I do, would like to know what is done to move the quad. |

Yeh all that stuff is similar. But you gota remember the side to side movement aswell. Just take it slow and you will catch on, its not that hard.  _________________ Mic

Save up for a half decent aftermarket swingarm if you plan to keep on jumping.
I broke Dads banshee swinger doing that jump and since then we have gone thrue another 2 swingarms. In the long run it would have been cheaper to go aftermarket first time round.  _________________ Mic
