Are Blasters so tippy that people hurt themselves a lot?

 

Well many peaple do say that they are tippy due to there small wheelbase and width but I dont think they are at all. I can rail into and turn and it barely ever goes up on two wheeles.

 

If you try ridig it like a big 4x4 or something (with little to no body english) You'll soon find yourself on your behind.. Ride it like its suposta be ridden, throw your weight around and you'll be all set. Stock, if you dont know how to throw your weight they can be tippy.. Aftermarket tires will help ALOT.

 

My 11 year ole son has a 99 Blaster and yes, I was concerned that it seemed a little tippy. Even so, it is very simple to fix this.

First, take the front tires off and turn them around. Don't worry, regardless of what others say, this will not hurt the spindles. What is does do is make the front end 2" wider on each side (4" total). The air valves will now be on the inside, but they are still acessible to put air in them.

Next, go down to any ATV store and purchase spacers for the rear wheels. They run about $50.00 a pair.

With these two simple, inexpensive ($50 total) modifications, your Blaster will be unbelievably steady. This is a whole lot cheaper than putting extended a-arms and axle on it. The results will be the same, I assure you!

Good luck!

 

I shift my weight a lot on my Kodiak and fly around corners, but its both my dads and mine. So I'm buying a sport instead of owning a huge utility(can't do nothing on those).
