    Post wont do wheelies???

    everyone says the stampede is wheely crazy,well mines the exact opposite.the only way it will ride a wheelie is if you hold the front end up and throttle it,then it rides a wheelie.u had this problem????please tell me how i can do wheelies from a standing stop.THANK you.

    hi all. i have all 3 of my n-pedes geared 18/70. 18 is factory bell too.
    mine has no problems pulling wheelies. the other weekend my nitrogravedigger was doing a fine wheelie "dance" till it almost crashed and i had to let off to correct it. this was at monsterjam on the 26/27 of jan...

    well man mine is whas kinda the same way till I put a stinger pipe on it..And it will still vary from day to day..some days it will just pull a wheelie from a standing stop. then some days you have to hit a little bump to get the front wheels up..it all mainly depends on how your engine is tuned. you may also make sure your slipper clutch is pretty tight. also try leaning up the bottom end a little this will help get out of the hole quicker and hopefully pull wheelies.

    tighten up yout slipper clutch(not all the way). if that doesn't work. check if your engine is bogging out when you punch the throttle. the adjust your engine accordingly. maybe your linkage is sloppy also.

    i have the same problem as the other guy...mine wotn pop a wheelie ever .. i tightened my slipper clutch and upgraded to a tuned pipe so maybe it will now work if you think it sucks to pull a wheelie, maybe richen your settings? either that or trade yours with mine..its like there waits on the front of mine or something
