Shaft Drive any good?

Don't be shy

 

I will as soon as I take mine out on Memorial weekend. I am loading the trailer this weekend and getting ready to goooooo!!!! There is a review in ATV Sport Magazine, I just got my copy two days ago.

 

So far I don't have any complaints about my Z250. I'm a lighter rider, but I still haven't even come close to bottoming out my suspension and is soaks up the bumps pretty good. The powerband is really smooth but it could have more topend power. But thats the only problems so far, other than that is it great

 

Suzuki250kid, how much do you wiegh and how high are ya jumping? Are you getting wheelies?

 

I weigh about 120lbs and the highest I have got so far was about 8 feet (I'm working on a bigger jump). It will wheelie if you pull the shifter up into 1st or 2nd, rev the engine up, and then drop the shift lever down. It works better when doing it in 2nd gear.

 

What about having it in second and punch it and pull back at the same time? I just dont like the rev and kick in gear thing....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

 

I haven't tried that yet. Maybe for somebody heavier that could get more of their weight over the backend it might work. So far the only way I know of getting it up is rev it and drop it into gear.

 

Sounds like a good jumping quad. You weigh a lot more than my kid and jump higher too, LOL.

BTW, check this review out. If this is true, you've got yourself a nice quad there.

 

Be careful dropping that gear. After a while it's gonna cause you some problems.

 

Yeah, I know. I have only done a few wheelies so far. I'm going to try and rev it up and then pull back on the bars to see if that will work, but I think I am too small to do that.
