I found this forum looking for some info on the Hammerhead Twister Karts. I bought a green one about 4-5 months ago for the kids, they just run around the neighbor hood on it. I was wanting to change the wheels on it but it has some kind of funky bolt pattern. Does anyone know of any aftermarket wheels for the Hammerhead Twister? I intend to buy another one when the 250cc version comes out.
Thanks in advance for your help.

 

Most states don't require it that I am aware of... check with your DEM or DMV

 

Somewhere earlier in this thread it is mentioned. There is a brand of ATV that has the same pattern in the rear.

Man, another manufacterer coming out with 250s... too cool.

 

Brand new in the market and looking for some info. We have some property that has some ATV trails on it and I am looking for something that I can take some kids with me to ride. The trails have some pretty long hills.

I have seen the Twister Hammerhead at Galyans and I really like it. However, there is all this talk of the liquid cooled 250s coming out...but I am looking for a 2 seater with as much power as possible. I have $3500 to spend.

I have read the entire thread could someone summarize the options for me with some links?

Thanks.

 

If memory serves me correctly.

The front pattern is a 4 on 110mm(same as the rear of a Honda 400EX,250R,300EX)
The rear is a 4 on 137mm(same as a Kawasaki Bayou)

If you're looking for a more common pattern for the rear, Yamaha hubs bolt right up. I'm using Raptor hubs on mine, and a buddy of mine is using YFZ450 hubs on his. Banshee and Warrior hubs should be the same as well. Used ones can be had off of Ebay for under $25.

 

Has anyone had any trouble with the reverse jumping out of gear? I have a twister and the problem was taken care of right away under warranty but I'm just curious. It was not a cable adjustment problem as the entire gearbox was replaced. I suppose all the karts use the same reverse gearbox. By the way my drive sprocket is a 16 tooth.

 

Are there any kart riders in the four state area of Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri and Arkansas? We've got a great riding site on the Verdigris River in the Coffeyville area.

 

Anyone having any fun in the snow lately? Man, what a blast. The Xterro is a little more doggy in the snow than the XTV... but Wow... still a lot of fun. Mainly the tires on the XTV are much more squared off in the rear which I think helps gain more grip at low speeds.

 

it would be great if you guys could post some video of you rides in the snow or whatever. i myself would love to see 'em.

I think I am just going to buy the Chrome wheels from the local dealer. I had no luck finding any hubs on Ebay. Its all good though, I just wanted it to look a little better. Thanks again.
