Ken Keir wheelie bars

sure looks and sounds like your entension was too soft.

all I can tell you is that with DA Afco's at all four corners and adjustable travel limiters you CAN tune the wheelie to whatever you're comfortable with.

I can also tell you that the shock and travel limiter settings that work in average air will have you going straight up in good air.

Once you get the rear shocks set right so it dead hooks in good air on a colder track, all you need to do is stiffen/tighten the extension on the front shocks on good air days.

Find your usable range on the extension and stay within it.

On good air days, I start with the front shocks at full stiff on extension and go no more than 1/8 turn from there.

FYI, you can also tame the wheelie by swapping out your front springs to a stiffer spring.
