I am looking to put new tires on the back of the boys lt-80. I would like a tire that works well in the sand and trails. Any ideas on the type/size? If there is no such animal will it turn 6 paddle 18x8.5x8 skat-traks?

I plan on removing 2 clutch weights, open up the airbox, and rejet this week. Those that have worked the airbox, how many holes did you put in.

What about reeds? I need to get this done by the 13th of april. Going to the sand. Thanks, Mark

I have reeds comming,,any day now.(ran out) the LT's that I have seen run a 5 paddle tire. Till you get serious porting,the air box cuttung is 99% useless,take a roller or 2 out see if you like the performance,it will take off faster,but removing too much weight will loose top end speed.good luck and have fun
