lower quad = less traction?
I'd guess the road conditions have more to do with it than anything. I wonder what it would do on asphalt.
The swingarm should be level or above. ie: the swingarm pivot should be higher than the axel. If the pivot is lower it could be causing the lack of traction.

LOL, I think things got confused. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
After your 2nd post, I figure you like the way it is, and prolly should! Seems you found the set-up to accomplish a great holeshot w/o raising the front tires. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]
The topic question lead us to believe you were unhappy with the way it is.
OK, to hopefully answer the topic question:: we raise/lower the quad to get more/less traction and lower the center of gravity (or change it). It is known that you get less traction once the swingarm pivot goes below the axel. Altho some may like that way.
Real estate has location.
Quads have set-up. Whether it's for MX,TT,XC,etc. Congrats [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
