RSVDon Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Of straps on the front forks of drag bikes. I would assume that it keeps the forks from fully uncompressing, but how's it beneficial to you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hue jass Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 (edited) I think it helps to keep the front down on take-off, and if the front end does come up, it helps to eliminate bounce when it comes down.Oh, and happy birthday!

justin0469 Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Yeah, I'd imagine is transfers a little more weight to the front so you don't pick it up as easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siggywiggy Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 yeah mx'ers use a system as well. On take off it holds the forks down so the weight transfer is on the front. You can dump the clutch and twist the throttle harder with out the wheel coming up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 ...because doing something gay always requires straps of some kind. +rep! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
