hey whats up
when i first got my mojave i could only go about 10feet to!now i can go fauther then anyone around my area.I have been batched at a local rally go 567feet.I would sugest trying to find the balance point in first gear then work your way up.I start in 1st and go to 3rd,i stay in 3rd and keep going untill the road ends.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Don't try to use the rpm of the motor to do your wheelies-find that "balance point" you both spoke of and just feather the throttle-practice is the only way to get better. I prefer to ride slowly in second or third (fourth-no lie-if I have room) and give a tug and some throttle and ride it out that way.
By the way I never have tipped all the way over backwards-always stops upright on the grap bar-doesn't hurt (just my pride!).

 

thanks for the hints guys!!!i totally forgot about the grab bar and how it will just chatch me if i go over, im gonna go practice now. peace

 

dont count on the bar to much!it doesent always work,trust me i know.When i had my stock grab bar it went right over a few times!then i bought a 6 pack rack.It works wicked.

 

Reminds me of the time i was playing in my yard in the snow. I lost traction, with a little wiggle the front end went up and the grab bar hit. There i was, Mojo verticle, stopped, laughing my butt off. Of course i refused to let go and forced the quad back down. I can't ride a wheelie either. Don't you have to feather the rear brake as well to keep your balance ???? Help us out !!!! From experience i can say the mojo can't fly like my old sport, it's balance was perfect. I threw that thing around like my rm125 and kx 500. It felt better in the air than anything i have owned.

 

U only tap the back brake if u start to go over back words.BUT keep on the gas and just TAP,trust me if u hit the brakes hard then u will hit the ground HARD
