Talking Riding fast bikez?

heyy about a day ago i was riding my water cooled blata and decided that i wanted to take it through some turnz.....about 10 mins in i got sick of riding it because i can bearly go fast because my front wheel is 4cm off the ground and thats with 1/4 turn throttle... when i give it some more it REALLY kicks in and im almost on my back...

i dont know how use race them fast with out doing wheels through every turn......so what im really here for is 4 some tips on how to taime the beast and get quicker with out killing my self

I love my bike

Try shift your weight forward and wrap the throttle on slower bud. If it still keeps on lifting constantly you might need to put some taller gearing on it. I can tell you for a fact Banshee's are hopeless with any more than stock power because of the short gearing. 6 - 76. Mine even completely stock would lift as it came on the pipe if you didn't lean right over the front. back off and nail it while on the power band and you'd be looking at changing your undies.

7-72 isn't too bad at all. Maybe your clutch is just set to engage a bit too high.

Balance

Don't sit back on the seat like a lazy ***. Put your weight through the pegs, lean forward and turn the throttle harder. Lols

Too fast

Maybe your bike is just too fast then. Doesn't sound like a problem just get used to how much throttle you can use and when. When raising your bike aggressively out of a turn there is upward motion which will encourage the front to lift. If it just hangs there a little bit it wont slow you down much. Chinese bike don't usually have that much power tho especially with a 7 tooth on it. I still reckon you gotta get further forward it takes awhile to get used to.
