i ccan get my 400ex up easy but when i get to the balance point i feel like im going to fall off backwords is there aney way to avoid this thanx, aney othor tips would help[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

i just remember that i know the quad isnt going to flip on me sense the grab bar is there. oh and if you do the standing up wheelie with your one foot on your grab bar it is alot easier to learn your balance point and your "im in trouble" point. just my 2 cents some one will probably have an completely different oppinion.

 

buy a trike. youll be puckering up to that gas tank instead of leaning back. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Fall over backwards a few times and you'll learn the real balance point and the meaning of gone too far.

 

Remember, if you start to feel like you are falling off the back or going to flip, you have a rear brake cleverly hidden under your right foot. Tap on that once hard and it should bring you right. Also, learn to feather your throttle a little bit, when you start to go to far back let off a 1/2 second, get right and get back on the throttle. I can ride wheelies in first and second for a while, I got a friend that can pull them as long as he wants thru third. I have never flipped my quad and got hurt. I saw my buddy flip his at about 40 mph and the quad did about four cart wheels, then we had to get the acetelene torches and welder out to fix it. But he didn't even have a scratch on himself. Obviously don't flip it on cement or a rock bed. The one guys advice of starting out on your knees seems to really work well for most folks. Try that too.

 

just remember if you are on fairly flat ground the 400ex will not roll back on u. and when it hit the grab bar and even if u cant hit the brake, just hold on and you will be fine

 

like the other guy said if u learn on the best invention yet ... a trike...ull always have ur head peakin up...

 

that rear brake will bring it back so once you convince your self of that you'll not worry about it.

 

lol i just got over it a week ago i learned by STANDING on the rear grab bar flooring the quad and poping the clutch really hard and fast and sense i seen it wouldnt flip for nothing i gradualy started sitting down and whelling higher and higher now im pulling it up in 5th at 55mph [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] its a rush

 

practice is the best plan
