fmfbanshee98 Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 I used to have a set of 20x10x10 10 padlle haulers. Local shop has a set of 22x11x10 10 paddle haulers how much of a difference will it make if i get the taller 1's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheeryder_69 Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 you could drop your rear sprocket down a 1-3 teeth to adjust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reded Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Add two teeth to rear to adjust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallrat Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 (edited) Ya you'll need to change the gearing as the other 2 guys posted. I see they said to go up and down in the rear. The correct action would be to ADD 3 teeth to the rear or drop 1 tooth on the front. But I assume you're asking what the performance difference would be. Well, a taller tire will elongate more at speed. Lets just say that a 20" tire elongates 2" at top speed - thereby giving you the speed capability of a 22" tire (higher final ratio). So then we'll say that a 22" tire elongates 3" because its got more sidewall and all that. So that gives you the speed capability of a 25" tire. I'm just throwing some numbers out there. I have no idea exactly how many inches the tires will elongate. On the downside, bigger tires are going to roll more when you corner. Also they're going to raise your center of gravity. Both these items will make your bike handle worse than on 20's. BTW...10 paddles is alot. What kinda mods you running to pull that many paddles?

fmfbanshee98 Posted March 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 All I have is a aggresive dune port, fmf fattys and silencers, advance timing, boyesen reeds adn some other stuff I cant think of right now. I ran the 20x10x10 10 paddles on a stock 00 with only fmf pipes and silencers and boyesen reeds and was beatin a crap load of built bikes. Right now I have 8 paddles sand sharks but want more bite and more of a holeshot get to much tire spin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallrat Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 (edited) On a shee tire spin is your friend. 4 strokes have that low end torque to pull lots of paddles, shees don't. You'll get more traction off the line w/ higher #'s of paddles (assuming you're geared so you don't bog), but unless the drag is under 100ft ur gonna be hurting for speed. Stock stroke/cylinder/bore shees run best on 8 paddle haulers. When you start going w/ cubs or a stroker you can consider 9's or even 10's. Really aggressive drag ports can just barely pull 9's w/out hurting their top end speed. Edited March 16, 2006 by Wallrat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bansheeryder_69 Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 (edited) I run 20's with 8 paddle extremes, i get the holeshot on almost anything Edited March 19, 2006 by bansheeryder_69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfngrn Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 I had 9 paddles on mine and they worked good then I swaped with my wife's bike she had 8's and I had too much power and spin right through them and got stuck on hills. I bought 10 paddle extremes and put the 9's on my wifes bike. I love the 10's they hook up good!!! I have some mods though. I ran 8's for years with stock engine, had pipes and stuff, just progressed through out the years to more hp, needing more paddle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
