Default Newbie here bought helix150

Hey whats goin on i just bought a all stock helix 150 for myself and 3 year old son and have done alot of heavy trail riding with quads where i live and was wondering what mods i should do to improve the helix for trails dont really care about top end that much but hills and climbing over things is a must so i think i will need some more ground clearance... thanks

Best bang for your buck is going to be in your clutching and intake. Others may reply on what weight sliders/rollers did to their top end. Seems to me someone went with 10 grams and lost a lot of top end but had much better climbing ability.

Get with a UNI filter and carb jetting and that will give you a little more boost as well.

12g sliders & 1500 spring or 10g rollers & 1500 spring-the sliders cost a little more but
you will lose less top end & still be equal to 10 rollers for climbing
