  • Be sure to tighten all the screws after and in between runs. Also, taking out and cleaning/lubing all the bearings helps keep things rolling. Change out the shock and differential oil once in a while, never store fuel in the tank, and always be sure there is a lot of smoke coming from the pipe when you hit the throttle. Keeping it clean is a big help as well, since often you find parts that are broken or about to break. Making sure nothing is loose plays a big factor during a crash where you either bounce off and keep driving, or you break something.
