Default does a yfz wheelie good

I can do great wheelies on my new YFZ, I have found it to have a great balance point, and I can hold the throttle steady in 2nd and ride them as long as I want. Not bragging, but that is just what I have found.

the yfz had a decent balance point... It's just different that most other quads.... I can ride a wheelie all day long on mine... 2nd - 5th gear...

Here's a video of a guy off of yfz central.com 's site. I'd say he found the balance point quite nicely.

whats faster?

the yfz is not the "fastest" stock quad. it is very fast and acccelerates faster than most quads in my opinion. it has a top speed right along with the raptor, DS, pred, banshee, 450R, etc. but none of those are the fastest stock quads. the stock quad with the highest top speed is the quadzilla, i think. thats what ive been hearing. but its not just top speed that makes you the fastest (fastest meaning the quad that wins). and i agree with zukiscott 100%

Yfzs have sikk low end, thats why they so good in mx. I would imagine that they are decent at doing them because of that. But i couldnt know for sure because i never rode one.

the dealer always says do not go past 1/2 throttle for 10 hrs, 3/4 throttle for 15 hrs and full throttle for 20 hrs. This is very hard to do, but I made it about 10 hours before going to full throttle. I would also reccomend not holding the throttle in the same position for a long period of time and vary your speed. Then ride it like you stole it.

Do some extensive research on this topic. I wasn't kidding. Ride the dog crap out of it. There have been numerous articles on this.

I break everything in like there's no tomorrow. I then maintain them top notch. I do not have problems with my equipment.
