In the tight woods, I rarely get to even 1/2 throttle. I find it's easier to cruise fast by using smooth bursts of low end grunt. On a motocross track I'm usually in the 1/2-3/4 throttle range. Only time I really get near WFO is wide open logging roads, desert riding or pavement/beach sections at the ISDE.

Log crossings might be 1/3-1/2 throttle for a quick burst.
