Default Pred 04/05 seat

Hey, i havent jumped my pred too much, but my buddy just built a track and im gonna go ride on it soon, i have noticed, on the jumps i have hit, that the front likes to dive, and its nose heavy, i heard it might be the rebound on the rear shock, if so, how do u adjust it, or is the problem that im just not giving it enough throttle? thnx

Default Predator Jumping

When I'm hitting jumps with my preddy, i like to keep it in 2nd/3rd, keep constant acceleration through the jump, and once my front wheels lift off I pull up on my handlebars and give it a quick boost from the throttle. That along with me keeping my weight back prevets the nose from diving. Be careful when you're jumping to not let the nose dive forward, or the front grab bar will grab and it will endo (happened to a buddy of mine 2 wks ago). Also, take it easy until you are used to the feel of it. And "Don't ride faster than your angel can fly."
