locogato11283 Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 You should always replace sprockets and chain as a set. You're just asking for trouble if you don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagunCajun Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 ^ Learned two things today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheedawg28 Posted March 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Pretty sweet..I've had issues with the stock brass that comes with the digital gauge so hopefully this does it or maybe I need to stop pressing so hard ha. It's magnetic and has a lid..pretty cool. Well at least you learned something I have the other sprocket and chain waiting for this front one. They take shape to each other so when you replace just one it doesn't mesh well with the others so it ends up wearing them quicker..it's a viscious circle.

Sheedawg28 Posted March 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Also decided to see what the hype was about with this Maxxis RAZR X tires and see if they're worth the $100 a piece. So the ones on the right are Atrax mxtrax and those I bought in a 19x10x9 and the Maxxis they offer them in an 18 so I went with 18x10x9...but when I put them side by side as I've known tire companies in the same sizes (at least the width and wheel size compatibility being the same in this case) will be different physical sizes which held true here. Knob to knob the Maxxis measured in at 9-1/4" where the Atrax, again from outside knob to outside knob measured 8-3/4". The Maxxis overall width was 10" where the Atrax came in at 9-1/2". So for sure more surface area will equate to more traction..can't wait to try these puppies out next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagunCajun Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 CST Pulse is what I'm running. Hook harder than anything I've tried. You can just use a regular air chuck for tires. Then get a cheap tusk low pressure air gauge. Works for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look like they'd wear too quick and have too much give in the 2-ply rating. Yea I could, I prefer motion pro. Their blue anodize is sweet.

trickedcarbine Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 More surface area is not always more traction. There is a fine line between having the right tire and having to much tire spread the weight out to much so that it bites less. Love this build. It's tits.

trickedcarbine Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 What?We aren't talking paddle count. That's another story. But on some set ups, you can actually have more traction on a smaller tire. It puts more weight/pressure on the lugs so they bite harder then a wider tire that spreads the weight out so the lugs bite less agressively. Kind of same principle as having to much swing arm.

You know who you're talking to right? Contact area on a dirt tire is everything. If you think running a narrower dirt tire puts more pressure on the lugs causing more bite, you're just flat out delusional. You're trolling right?

guns4children Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 I can't get a full weekend out of a 2 ply without it looking like a porcupine. My bearclaws on the other had cannot be killed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are several reasons pro moto riders are not using 20"-22" tires. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
