I ride mainly in glamis all around dunes. Not just hill climbing. What are the best paddles to get? Also do razors on the front make a difference?

 

the ds gets stuck a lot with 20" rear tires, the 22" solve that problem, stock 8 paddle work great. wedge or striaght is kind of up to the ride style. fronts are nice not sure what most like razor mohawk or buff, i have buff and had mohawks.

 

front sprocket change is good on a stock machine and some heavier clutch springs are nice also, about 20 each and easy to do yourself, just make sure you know the difference between inch pounds and foot pounds

 

I like my Sand Tires Unlimited Mini Desert traks with Ty-bow cut work great in the dunes but cost a arm and a leg. I all so have Skat track Extreme 22X11X10 8 paddles. The STU for high speed dunes and turning the Extreme for hill climbing and drag racing

 

What mods do you have done?

 

I love my 16 paddle Sand Stars.

im getting 2 sets of sand skates 02 comp cut there fricken exspensive but are a play dunners wet dream come true, go 0.160 wall, unless your launching in teh air all the time, Im selling my 0.190 walls and switching also, also I too have the 22 x 11 x 10 8 paddle extrems good tire night and day handling and floatation, I run STU 22" in the fronts, ask Dave about off sets also what works the more the DS's stance is widen the better she floats, you may loose some quick turning ability but she wont get stuck and float over china wall with no worries, also with 22 you will need to trim your heel gaurds no biggie, they even look better when done, and depending on your size a 1 or even a 2 tooth drop on the counter from 16 to 15 really lightens up the front end, another fun easy fix for quicker revs is a 520 conversion, woods sell alum sprockets for 65 bucks a counter is 20, get a X ring chain from Rocky mountain for 65 to 75 bucks add some oil , oil filters, radiator ICE and break 99 bucks and get pre paid frieght.
Good Luck!!

 

i have the skat trak extremes...had them for 3 seasons....hardly any wear and tear....love them....turned my DS into a dune superstar.....have intake/full exhaust, and old man stock carb mods...thanks to aceisback and blackhawk
