21x10x8 9 paddle regular haulers.

8 was too much spin

10 was too much bite

we'll see tonight if 9 is just right.

The drag bike has 22x12x10 10 paddle taller haulers and a plus 4 swingarm

 

:cheers:

 

enjoy the sand :clap:

A 10 inch diameter wheel looks good and works great for laying it sideways but for performance a 8 inch diameter wheel will do a lot better.

Totally agree 10 inch for looks, 8 inch for performance in the dunes at least. :cheers:

What do you guys tires and gearing do you think that i should run? My banshee is ported, 18cc domes, v force, t-5s, 35mm carbs,+5 timing, and a +6 swingarm. Right now i am running sand skate IIs but want to get a set of skat trak's but dont know where to start with size abd number of cups. They will be mainly used for drag racing. Thanks.

Yeah it seems like most banshee owners haven't grasped that the banshee does better when you let its tires spin up. They figure that a 450 can pull 10 paddles, so they totally could since they're faster. When in truth you end up robbing the engine of power. 4 strokes have that ability to lug, the banshee needs fewer paddles to spin up. On a stock stroke, you never need more than 9 paddles, 8's on extremes. Match up 2 equal riders/banshees and the 10 paddle might take it off the line but the guy running 8 paddles will blow by him halfway up the hill.
