Help! +4 Or +6?


Recommended Posts

I only ride at little shara state park in OK and I already have a +2 extention on my stock swingarm, but Im putting out around 70hp and i plan on getting around 10 more hp soon with the addition of a crank.

its already coming up fairly easily with the current setup, but i still want to be a ble to ride the trails and whoops at little sahara, as well as the drags, is the +6" too long for that??? I was set on that length because it looks really good but if it hinders my other riding besides drags I`ll go with a +4.

any advice????

thanks guys,,,,,,,,,BM95

From what I know, a +6 is about the longest you want to go if you still want to jump. You have to have your chain looser than normal so when the suspension compresses, the chain can tighten without breaking anything.

 

If I were in the same position, I would go +4.

I have a ported 350 that makes around 60-65hp with a +6. I liked stock because you could turn better and jump better too. The +6 gets over the whoops way faster and looks a lot better too. I need 22-11-8 10 paddle extreme haulers now because there is no traction with my +6 and 20-10-10 on 10 paddles extreme haulers. I start in second to drag and it just spins like mad and I go for about 10ft and shift to third and it slowly starts to hook but I loose bad off the start. As far as wheelies it is hard to do them too. Maybe I just need more HP like you will have. Doing wheelies is hard too because you have to do them while you are in the power band which is very fast and that can be dangerous. I think with my set up now +2-4 would be nice. So I guess I will just have to get a stroker soon.
