Hi Guys Ive been racing for a while now but I've noticed that the bikes I race against seem to have a wider axle not sure if thats the right term then the one I currently have on. Now wen I take corners my bike always lifts up instead of being flush. Should I change my width on the rear axle? :confused:

A wider alxe will definately help you stay flat around corners. Wider front a-arms would help too, but it is best to run aftermarket shocks, or have your stock ones re-valved and re-sprung to compenstate for the leverage difference created by the longer a-arm.

      Convert solid rear axle to a differntial?
      By geezer99
      I have an Axis 500 made by Hisun.  I uses a solid rear gearbox with no differential action. 
      I would like to convert this to a true differential with locking ability.  I've searched all over trying to find a source with no luck.
      Has anyone done this before, or know of a source? 
      Thanks,  Tom

      Hoping against hope that you will tell me that my '86 225 Moto4 is not as bad as I think
      By DaveswMN
      Pulled my '86 Moto4 out of shed where it sat for 20 years. I knew it smoked. checked it over a little put in gas and it fired right up!! 
      Drove about 100 yards, ran about half throttle wouldn't idle.  Put on somenew parts, jug/piston and rings, carb and valve seals.
      'went together ok, tuned it over by hand about 6 revs whick went well. Hit the starter it fired for about 6 revs and quit. tried it again fired once and then th sound of something slipping like maybe chain slipping over spoket.
      Took cover off to watch cam sproket, hit starter again, heard same noise and the cam sproket was not turning but jumping a bit. Chain was still tight. You will probably tell me I need to split the lower case but hoping there mightbe something else.
      I don't fully understand the chain tightener, the plunger only moves about 1/4 inch, should it move much more than that when off the motor and compressing it by hand?
      Thanks for any thoughts.
