So My wife and I got this quad and I been Launching it from dead stop to attempt and catch idle, but without gauges how am I supposed to know where to set the idle ?? I suppose trial and error is going to do for now, but i am a little concerned how the rear tires are skipping when the suspension releases back out...

this,also keep it high enought to keep you on wheelie,but that you are able to control it without too much brake pressure

get off the seat for one, stand staggered with your left foot on the back bar and right foot on the brake, looks like your clutching it way to hard cuz your sitting down. try that first with idle up just a little, if you start to 12 it and hit the bar or stall out your idle is up to high. if you grab to much break and it keeps coming down your idle is down to far. quads are super easy. in a day or 2 youll be doing no handers like its your job.
