I have purchased a 2011 vector. It is bone stock. When i ride it, i think the turning is terrible and unpredictable in the corners. The second i hit the throttle in the corner, while turning the ski's, the sled just goes straight. The ski's do not lift of the ground. I came from a 2002 SRX which i could turn at 100mph in the corners. I know i wont be able to do it with the vector but i think there could be some huge improvements.
Is there anything i can do to get better predictable turning? Change the Ski's? loose or tighten smoothing? I currently have dual 6in carbides.
Any advise would be great

I might give 8" slim Jims a try yet.

sounds like it is transfering too much for you when you get on the throttle. most times i hold steady on the throttle through the corner and agressevily roll onto it coming out.

I had the same problems on a new to me 08 Vector GT. It turns out the suspension was set up for a very heavy rider.
I was fortunate to have a list of settings sent to me from a member on here. Once I went with his settings it was night and day. I could ride it at speeds over 35 without a death grip on the bars.

Those duel carbides im am guessing are something like woody's doolys?? Those push like crazy in the corners. Work great for slower riding but junk in faster cornering.
