I have a 2005 shee with t6 pipes. I want to use the haulers but don't know how many paddles 8, 9, or 10? Anyone know :shrugani:

I'd go with 8 or maybe even less. With a stock swingarm your not going to want too much traction, and with only t6 pipes 9 or 10 paddle would probaly be too much and would hurt your top end.

I am new to the banshee and new to draging on any quad. Can you explain why with a stock swingarm I dont want too much traction? I drag race a monte carlo :headbang: and I know that traction wins races, why different on a quad?

A banshee reacts very quickly,and it can be on top of you if you're not careful.You probably won't win many races if you keep having to let out of it to keep from flipping over.The longer the swingarm is,the less likely it is to wheelie.Mine is extended 5 inches,and I still have problems with wheelies.I not stock though.8 paddles will be plenty.A 10 paddle will probably knock a stock banshee in the dirt.It would probably be geared too low to pull the 10's to do any good.

like they say 8 paddles...if you get too much traction you wheely and you have to let off the gas..if you get just the right amount you will be able to stay into the gas the whole pass..imagine your'e running a 1200hp camaro and you wheely and get ur front cocked a little sideways and have to let out on the gas..now how does that effect your times..on a bike with a longer swingarm you have more weight distributed to the front therefore its harder to wheely
