wolfie1 Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 You can only really tell if smoke is about right when its on full throttle, and in that space your driving it in isint enough for it to change out of first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

locky Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 You can hold it by the grab handle off the ground and accelerate to full throttle, you should hear and feel it change if your tune is good and rpms are high enough and it is set up correct. You need a longer run to reach full throttle for long enough so unlikely to manage this in your garden unless you are very brave and can brake soon enough.

Thanks luckily I back onto a farm with a empty field behind me so could step over my back fence and Try a faster run in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
