Default 05ds650 baja X turning

Hey guys just got ack from LS OK and need to figure out how to get my 05 baja to turn etter thru the trails. I follow alot of buddies on yfz 450's and do fine till I start to wear out and then I start missing turns as the power just pushes the bike forward. I am wondering if wider a-arms will help or if anyone has any good ideas. Bike is slghtly modified with 14 tooth front sprocket, big gun cdi, t4 exhaust, tm45 with ron woods intake and direct mount filter, and port and polish job. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Do you got sand tires up front? They may help some but I dont think going wider will help you turn easier... Maybe some adjustments to your suspention would help. If you need some DS front sand tires I got some just sitting in the garage.

Try taking some of the preload out of your shocks (both front and rear) to lower the stance and center of gravity. This will also slightly widen the front end as the a-arms will now be more parallel to the ground.
