hey pred owners.

does he preditors anti dive and anti squat suspension setup up and the new steering system up front keep it from wheelying easily? how much trouble do you have wheelying? riding on the side wheels?and doing stoppies?


also i what is the compression of a pred? and does it have any type of fuel system or is it just gravity fed? thanks

nemisis,
You can easily get the pred to wheelie if you want in 1st and 2nd. As far as riding it, it probably doesn't balance as well as a ex or Z, but it's possible. As far as riding on side wheels or fast breaking fronts, I don't really do those tricks. The manaual says that the Pred has 10.8:1 compression. And there is a small fuel pump that helps drive fuel to the carb!

Hell I can wheelie in 5th gear if I try hard enough, but it wheelies easily thorugh the first 4 gears for me anyways. the fuel pump is a pulse-fed pump which helps when your in the rough terrain!!

It wheelies a lot better now that I put a 13 tooth sprocket on it. It still not as easy as my brothers Z, but I can still get it up[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Check out my pic's. I have since added another 300+ studs to each rear tire for a total of about 680 in each rear and on ice or hard packed snow I can wheelie the Predator and balance it way better than my 400ex. I can wheelie it the first 3 gears until I run out road or lake at any speed. Even 4th gear wheelies are pretty easy alittle harder in 5th but hey isn't it on most bikes?

Endos and bicycling are done easily also gotta love this quad.
