I'm not much of a pro but theres not much to tell ya besides start at w/e you feel safe at and work your way up. All I can tell you is right before you are going off the jump give it hell to try to keep you from doing a nose dive, never roll into a jump, better missing the landing ramp then casing it. Make sure your feet are settled in the pegs pretty well, I like to lean my feet back when I jump, don;t know why and the last thing is keep your body lose when your landing or else it feels allot rougher on the landing. O ye and if you are sure you messed up bail so you aren't in the way of the quad if you wreck.

my first jump was over a driveway...
i found out that right before your front tires hit what ever it is your jumping you need to gas it otherwise you'll mostlikly nose dive, i also preloaded my suspension b4 i hit also...hope that helps...

There aight for jumping, there a little tougher because there a 2-stroke and they are old school, but they'll do. Id suggest gettnig some aftermarket shocks because the stock ones on those are pretty old.

It aint if your used to a 2-stroke but if you've been driving a mojave I would just get used to driving a 2-stroke before you start jumping

yaya gotcha now cuz the quicker reeving and such,

Posted by: cheater13

mojaves do have high revving though. well atleast mine does

Theres no real explaining it bro....ive raced for a long time now and you just get used to it. Start on little jumps and work your way up. Start on a small jumps(like a single)so you can get the feel of your quad and how it flies,then move to small doubles...... stay loose and have fun!

Tabletops are a beginner's best friend....

thanks people

yea i second that go with the table top.i still working on jumps and i have been riding for a year now. just get out and practice, thats the best

tap the throttle at take off, stay loose, if u start to nose in the air....hit the gas hard! this will make your rear end drop down a bit.....but most important, know ur bike and know ur jump!

Posted by: cheater13
