Guys I realy need help, I cant get grip when I go into a corner, I just keep on sliding sideways, the bike doesnt want to turn, so I have to take the corner realy slowly.
I dont know if it is the way my quad is set-up (The hight of the quad, front & back), the shocks (rebound & damping), I realy dont know.
I have Elka shocks on the bike. (My race bike)
Ok so I take my Spare LT-R, No problem, it just turn into the corner, I do a much faster time with the Spare Stock bike than with my race bike.
I even took the spare bike's tires but stil i dont get any grip.
Plz help

Sounds like the suspension setup to me.

Yep seems like suspension adjustment to me also. If you have "sag control", or ZPS style try adjusting the rear so it does not Squat?(sp) so much. If you are to Low in the back it transfers to much weight to the rear axle and it will be hard to turn the front end it will push alot( turning the bars and the front tires just slide sideways in a straight line) 'cause you are getting so much traction back there with the weigh transfer.
If you can, try to do the rear(RAISE the ride height or stiffen Pre-load setting) or you might have to LOWER the front ride height with Pre-Load setting or your "sag control" ZPS system whatever the "hail" Elka calls it,LOL!
It will all depend on what type of shock system you have with the Elka's which you failed to tell us what type?
