Nitmare67 Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 450s were designed for girls. Banshee's for men. Buy a bowflex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollister_Hitman Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 yeah get +2+1 a-arms and a -2 swingarm. It will steer really easy after that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitmare67 Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 They steer really easy with 70hp or so and the front end hanging off the ground in 4th gear. Its like turning in air............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knight_ripper Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 ALSO...on a serious note. you can replace the steering stem bearing....and loosen the clamp on the stem. also....you could get a steering dampner/stabilizer and that help's alot too. I put a GPR on mine....and it took away all my arm pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

letsgetthisdone Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 if you have fully adjustable aftermarket a-arms you can reduce the castor. this will make it steer more easily, but it will get twitchy if you reduce it too much..

91banshee Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 take the top stem clamp off behind the radiator and greeze the stem real good and make sure the stem bearing is not locked up and air your front tires up a bit , it will steer just fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MX86 Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 get a steering stabilizer. also check the wheels and see if they are aligned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
