Has anyone ever taken a Trail Boss 325 over a jump or poped a wheely? I'm curious to hear if it has been done or if pictures exist?

 

Ive jumped a polaris 350l and a 2000 trailblazer, the 350 was a little hairy but the trailblazer wasnt very bad. Diddnt jump them far but jumped them and they felt ok. The key to jumping is a good jump.

 

I just put a picture of a guy on a trail boss on my site. He is in the middle of a hill, with the front end lofted way up. Not sure if this is the type of picture you are looking for, but here is the link to the picture.

lots of times at Silver Lake and at friends homemade mx tracks. probably haven't been any higher than 3.5' in the air. they fly good. no problems with the nose diving. usually blip the throttle before lift off. longest was at silver lake, i was in the air for several seconds. gotta little to much speed up for that one, i think...
wheelies? forget it... not unless your a moose and even then?... check the thread about the Stage 1 kit from Ritter Racing. some good info and good results i thought.

 

Check this one out.Here is the link.

Sorry Lurch I think we posted the link at the same time.

 

I have heard a lot of people say you can not wheelie a Trailboss 325. This is FALSE. You have to pull it from a stand still or VERY slow speed, but can be done fairly easily with some body english. I am a novice rider and I can get the thing up to the balance point no problem. This is on a stock 325. I weigh 180.

I added a stage one kit 1 week ago and can do wheelies without hardly any effort now.

Its alright Codeman, it was your pictures anyway. Besides, the more links to my site, the more traffic. LOL
I agree with the person that said Polaris jump well. They do handle very nice in the air. The problem is the landing. They tend to land hard. But this is a trade off. If you want the nice plush ride that Polaris has, then you can't expect nice landings. Plus, these are chubby machines. A nice diet would be nice for them to be good jumping machines.

 

allright "325" you got more muscles than i hsve or something. after reading your post i had to give it another try (plus i have the day off and can ride on the lawn without my wife yelling at me) From a dead stop i floored it, gave it a second to hit revs and pulled (sliding back on the seat also ) for all i was worth. i tryed six times or so and all i can get is a little front wheel float. maybe it's just my puny trim carpenter muscles, either that or my TB is already worn out. hmmm...

Take a look at my link. We have some pics of a Trail Boss Jumping.

 

I don't know. It could be your small carpenter muscles! LOL I pour concrete as a second job so that could explain it! Really, honestly, In stock form, on grass, I can get it up with a LITTLE body english. Maybe I just got a good one. 500, Are you out there. You can back me up on this. To make it even easier. Use your foot brake to hold the bike for a split second to allow it to rev just a little higher. This is what I have to do in sand to get it up and going.
