im thinking its the sprockets id like to go like +5 in the back maybe? my problem is i have no clue what the stock size chain and sprockets are. for some reason itll clutch up when ive got the girlfriend on the back nice and high but when im by myself it barely pops up and then it comes right back down any ideas? should i go bigger with the sprocket in the back? or am i just doing something wrong?

your rear sprocket should have the tooth number on it.. look for 44-48 stamped on it.. if its the stock sprockets you can look on this site for your setup (scroll down):

thanks for the advice on the sprockets, going to check the teeth on my rear one right now.

also i got out early this morning and finally got my bike up past the thresh hold and rode on the back tire for about 20-30 feet that was going like 10 mph of course, in first gear. i don't think it would clutch up in second at higher speeds but i'm going to try it today.

just went out and looked at the sprocket on the rear didnt see a stamp so i counted and its still the stock sprocket its got 43 teeth in the rear, but i know for sure its still -1 in the front id still like to go up a few teeth im pretty sure thats going to help alot with my higher speed wheelies that i want

just a word of advice if ur havin trouble ridin a wheelie dont try it with ur girl on the back,and if u go up more than 3 teeth u will need a chain ,and their r different sizes of width on ur sprocket a 600 usually has a 520
