Increasing lug height

[inexx]

Hi,

My 2010 renegade backcountry 800 has 1,25'' lug height.

Will upgrading to 2,3'' lug height track make it easier to wheelie?

Is there anything else i could do to make it wheelie easier?

Yes.

Also increase front suspension spring rate and the front shock of rear suspension.

Decrease the rear suspension spring rate for the rear spring/s.

You will also need to address gearing with that large of a change. You should check out ibackshift.com for some good info

I would recommend stiffen suspension in the front, soften suspension in the rear, and loosen limiter strap all the way. You are looking for weight transfer. The type of track you want is whatever matches the type of snow you are on. Generally, a longer lug will give you more traction, unless you are on hard pack or ice, then it is worse. You could also adjust the clutch to a higher engagement, but I'm guessing it's not worth the time. For us mountain riders it's all about finding the right bump to boost the front end up and look cool. Thunder Mountain Lodge
