23 khaos boost 155x2.75 not particularly playful?

[Empire087]

So ive done the following: Max stiff on high/low fts, max soft rts, softened the rts preload a few turns from base spec, and made sure the fts was factory stiffness on the spring. It does great riding trees still, but it just does not want to pop up the front end like i feel as though it should. Im also running speedwerx clutching, and the trs boost valve, so i dont think the throttle response is bad, making it this way. Get your guys 2c on this.

It's probably just the butter soft 2.75 combined with your snow conditions.

Basically any other 3.5 pitch track on the market will pop the front end better.

But you will loose the quick spool up of your track when "setting" into the hill.

I think the 325 is the closest to the 275 for "setting" into the hill and still having pop.

100% the track. I own identical boost sleds one with the 2.75 and one with the 3.25. No comparison on lift and playfulness.

Are you on a 165 or 155?

I have both a 2.75 and a 3.25 track on 165 boosts. They are different animals.

The 2.75 does wheelie a bit but nothing like the 3.25. All other things in the setup are equal.

The 2.75 just isn't a very playful track. It's a get $hit done track that destroys side hills while spinning really fast.

wow, I have a 155 with 2.75 and I can wheelie on flat and if on a hill it can come over backwards pretty easy. Made the same adjustments as you. I am also on a 23. I think you have done the right things and if not playful enough I'd try a different track.

Appreciate the feedback gentlemen, the 2.75 does seem to do very well within the trees, and so far its holding up decent. I suppose once i destroy it the rest of the way 3.25 is the answer!

I put on a composite m700.
Much better than the series 8 track.
First thing i noticed was the better traction and as a result lighter front.
It still retains some of the 2.75 positives. Not pushy like some 3” tracks. It is heavier, probably the only negative if thats a concern(+8-10 or so). But, I have not been nice to it and nobody would know. Last ride I spun it on top of a cut log, using most the throttle. That would have had me cutting paddles on the series 8. I knew I was doing some lug trimming on this track after that. I couldn’t even find where it happened when inspecting later. It is on an N/A though.

I had a 2022 155 khaos boost 2.75 and it wheelied a lot

Try adding preload to the front track shock....clickers only do so much. Outside of that, you'll be limited by the track as mentioned.
