Paddle Tire Riding
findme22001:
Try baja designs for a 19" paddle tire with 10 cups.
dholder:
I have a 19 inch paddle tire with 12 paddles, i purchased it years ago when I had a 94. I cannot recall who mades it, but it hook up great. In fact I am about to mount it up for a few goes to Little Saraha way out here in OKla
sdkx500:
I run a 12cup VIPER on my KX5, a close friend of mine runs a custom 14cup VIPER on his CR5. Dont forget to drop a tooth on the front sprocket, this will make the bike even more insane in the sand.
rradar:
I used to have a 10 paddle, but could only find an 8 paddle recently that I needed quick. At 110 in width I think it is too narrow and not enough paddles. I'm trying to obtain an 18 in. rear wheel to run a FAT 5.30 X 10 paddle min. Believe it or not, there is a big difference in pulling with extra paddles. Also, I take off my O-ring chain and use a standard chain and older sprocket set that I have because sand will eat up the bushings on the O-ring. Make sure the air box is sealed really well. One time, my paddle broke off the rear splash guard protecting the shock and airbox, ate sand and killed the beast WFO racing a Banshee-ugly!

The only time I've had a paddle come off is when I've run one of those POS Skat-traks with the glued on paddles.
