Okay, I've got a slip on exhaust on the way have a psh button start and a tether kill switch, any more suggestions?

 

Read this if you haven't already. Especially down towards the check list and what to expect.https://gnccracing.com/pages/gncc-101 I rode one enduro years ago and thought I was gonna die,had to pull out.Maybe a little more prep and I could have finished next to last..

 

thank you for that I took a few notes, how do I best tune my 450ho for racing.

 

Just have it running good and serviced. IT's going to be as taxing on your body as it is on the atv so take care of it also..

 

do you know how to lower the front suspension on the 2016 sportsmans?

 

Why would you want to do that???

 

If you want to lower it, you could go with smaller tires. Perhaps get a different set of wheels with slightly smaller tires just for racing. The smaller tires would lower your ground clearance and make it sit lower. It would also make it a little quicker because of the slight change in gearing and less rotating mass and friction. You'd lose a little top end speed though.

 

To get less clearance over obstacles?

P.S. If you get smaller diameter tires remember that you get 1/2" less ground clearance for each whole inch smaller diameter. If you want to lower it 2" your tires would have to be 4" smaller.

 

so even if I get smaller tires it wouldn't make enough difference and by the time I get to the right size it will drag even worse.

 

is there not a way to lower the factory struts like the back ones?
