making your headtube upright is one of the best mods you can do to a scooter in my opinion i love my headtube angle i havent seen anybody with a steeper one haha

yes, yes it is, i have a 1/4 in the front, and a big one with a large spacer in the back
 
My headtube is made to be 80 degrees, and it's quite steep when standing on an oversized deck. I guess the perfect angle is the one that puts the handlebars exactly over the front end of the deck.

i put mine pretty much 90 today i <3 it!....its amazing for bar spins...tail whips are a bit easier to...manualing it harder to pull back but once you get into the manual its easy to keep it up

90 degrees is a little excessive... mid 80's is nice if you know what i mean...YE YE!


i totaly agree with this, i used to ride 90 but if u do and u hit a crack or anything your center of gravity is so far forward u endo really easy

I love my headtube steep. My bolt sizes are 5/16 in the bottom, 1/4 in the front, and 7/16 behind the headtube. I had to file the back of the headtube slightly to get it to work.

i tried to ride with my headftube like that and couldnt even whip flat. its crazy different but i guess if you wanna try it out, go ahead

as for the bolt sizes...idk

could you whip flat before you changed the headtube angle?

i couldnt even double flat your scooter, i felt like a n00b. its not the weight at all, its the angle that messes you up. i would probably like getting used to that though becuase your scooter is a fucking tank.
