for the R that im getting what paddles would you guys run Im thinking haulers,edge or sand stars

[okieexrider]

I have the AMS Sidewinders for mine and Destins and love them. I know smokin had the edges for 1 of his bikes. Sand stars are a great tire also for messin around with from what I have been told but I don't have any experience with them. Chris

I swear by Haulers now that I've tried them. I run 20x10x10 9 paddles on the 350X and it's a bit too much tire for it. The 8 paddles in the same size worked great. On a 250R I'd say either an 8 or 9 paddle extreme would be about right for Waynoka sand. That's what my buddies run on their stock TRX450's and they really like them.

I have had edges, the trakker, haulers 8 and 9 paddle, sand stars, Alec has sand skate 2 so I can try them now that I have a machine that can run them. On this 250r I'm going to run 21" 7 paddle gliders.

I have done lots of research and found that all of the drag race guys prefer smaller or fewer paddles. You won't wheelie so bad on launches and it will gain more speed in mid track, also better handling for normal riding. They say most people over paddle there machine.

With all of that said if I don't like these gliders i will go right back to 7 or 8 paddle haulers.

I have a set of paddle brats 8 paddle that i traded for. the paddles are worn alittle maybe ill give those a shot when i go the dunes and if i dont like them ill just buy some up there

[just3]

you guys think I could get away with 7 paddle haulers or should i hold out for the 8s

[smokinwrench]

I have read about many guys running 6 paddle. THey like them handle better and good for drag racing.

cool thanks I can get some 7 paddles for 150 with rims

[just3]

I just talked to the guy and there 22" tall I think thats to tall I was thinking that they were 20s

[smokinwrench]

That might be kinda tall. I wonder if you could resell them on ebay for $150 if you dont like them.

I probaly could theres a pair on there for 150 now. Im going to the LS saterday I think Ill hold out till I see whats up there
