[QUOTE="High Lord Gomer, post: 120817, member: 16469"] The most helpful thing I've learned about riding in mud is to follow the front tire. What I mean by that is, don't fight the front end to try to make it go where you want. If it "decides" to wander off to the left...follow it. You can gently suggest and try to influence it's direction, but if it starts going, let it go and follow it. If the front tire starts going left and you try to fight it and muscle it back to the right, it will likely keep going and you will be getting a much closer view of the mud. :) As far as gear selection and throttle usage: I find it easier to control in very slick conditions to run a gear higher and use very slight throttle application to keep spinning down to a minimum. If the back tire is spinning, it sill pass you much quicker. :) BTW, that KX looks clean. :o Here is my 95 YZ at the first SpodeFest: [url]www.mindspring.com/~mnyland/mud_1.jpg[/url] [/QUOTE]
