This is actually a lakota quest.,but you mojave guys might no this.I wanting to flip the front wheels on my lakota but the valve gets in the way do you know how i could fix this to make it fit.Also does anyone know how to ride a wheelie on a lakota i've tried and could ride one,by putting it in neutral and revving it and pop it into first,but that made my clutch slip,so i replaced the clutch is there another way by not hurting the clutch?

 

If your running a stock clutch your are not getting the full benefit of your mods.We put a k&g factory clutch kit and springs in my wifes kota and it
made a big diff. we got it through a local shop for 35.00

 

I could ride a wheelie on the lakota for a long ways (200-300ft), just shift your weight to the rear of the seat and while your going in 2nd gear real slow just gas it and pull back on the bars at the same time, this would bring it up for me....it also helped in that I weight around 230 lbs and could use the weight to my advantage. Another way to get the nose up is while your in 2nd gear to lift up slightly on the shift pedal, this will engage the clutch so that you can build some rpms and then drop the pedal, this will also bring the nose up for you. Usually getting the front up is pretty easy, its practicing at finding that balance point so that you can ride a long wheelie. Right now I can ride a longer wheelie on my Lakota (200-300ft) then on my Raptor (100-150ft), its all about practice[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

if you dont mind drilling into your rims then take the tires off, take out the old valve stems and install them backwards or find another way to plug the old hole, now on the otherside drill a hold the same size and buy 2 new valve stems if you havnt used the old ones and just install them in on the other side, then put the tire back on and bead it

 

thanks for the help guys.I'm going to try the k&g clutch and in second gear to ride a wheelie,also i might get a tire shop to put the valve on the other side.Thanks again.

 

anytime
