Wheelie....
Congrats on the bike.......
its not hype, the thing rocks. My son and I love ours more each time we run 'em!
Adding to what Wrench said above and has been said many times here, strip it and grease it!
Steering head on both of my WR's were dry.
and the rear suspension links/swingarm not much better.
If you like to sample dirt (I do it enough that I must love it) change the bars now. Believe they are made from lead solder, they are that soft.
Hard Starting?
do a search on this forum, there is enough on that, but I have found taking the fuel/pilot up to 42 or 45 makes a ton of difference and this weekend I am going up to a 180 or 185 main for top end flyin'! (I ride at or just above sea level here)
Good luck, and my son and I love these machines!
