the most important aspect of controlling wheel spin, is clutch and throttle control. RM_GUY basically said it all. i can ad, that if you set your weight back further, then you are going to need to lean forward into the acceleration more, also, weigh your outside peg, that will give you better drive, which will keep you straiter. hey gomer, have you ever tried the maxxis c6001 its a pretty good tire, and it is really versital, i also like the pirelli mt320 in the wet stuff.
