springer Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 just got some b-day money so i get a free pass from the wife to buy a present for the shee. looking at either getting a cool head with 19cc domes or some hauler 8 or 10 paddles. already have some ims v-paddles which i really like, i'm just wondering if changing to some haulers would hook up better than just adding a little power from the head and keeping the v-paddles. current mods in the sig, let me know if you think i should go a different route.

SAVAGE420 Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 (edited) I vote for a noss head, but what elevation are you and what fuel do you plan on running with 19cc domes. Edited July 3, 2009 by savage420 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrMeyer Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 well I didnt see that you had a stoker or porting done to the bike. As for paddles dont go over 8. You wont have enough power to push them. I would go for the head first. The reason why I say go with the head is that you will have added cooling a you will be able to change out the domes for compression. That is what I did...Then I go on Ebay and got some Haulers from a guy called ORTires.com ebay name Peterson_IND. I have ran his tires for over three dunes season and getting ready to go on my 4th. I have 3 buddies that run them and last longer then the More $$$ Haulers.. My brother had a paddle start coming off and we took pics and sent them to the guy and he sent a new paddle out free of charge. They have changed the way they adhear the paddles on to the tires and have not given us any probs. and they are only $150 with free shipping!!!

springer Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 I vote for a noss head, but what elevation are you and what fuel do you plan on running with 19cc domes. i ride mostly at 1400-1500 ft. was planning to run avgas if i go with 19's. if i cant get it, ill just go with 21's.

HiRoller Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Paddles are totally personal choice. I'm a huge fan of the Haulers, best straight-line traction and not so much turning traction for big power slides. I rode on a bike with V paddles last weekend and hated them, they work completely bass-ackwards for what I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springer Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 thanks for the input everyone. just ordered my head, should be here thurs. actually found some paddles for cheap on ebay, the hauler knock-off's, for like $53 shipped. those should be here this week as well. so i got away with both options i was considering without the wife getting too pissed. now i just cant wait for winter so i can send my jugs off. time for some big boy power...

donkeypuncher Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 As for paddles dont go over 8. You wont have enough power to push them. my bike pushed 10 paddle haulers no problem when all it had was pipes. :ermm: i personally wouldnt go anything UNDER 8 even if a bike is stock. eventually you will have enough power and you wont have to buy a tire with more paddles later on.
