With tires (the larger 650cc quads and up exempted), If you increase tire diameter you change the overall final drive ratio the wrong way and beat up on acceleration and top speed. Tire weight does have an effect, but not near as much as the diameter increase. I would never (and didn't either) go to a larger diameter tire on my 400, they just plain rob to much torque to the rear wheels and beat up on the top speed.

Word is they make good sand tires too [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

No disclaimer required for me my friend... the smack talk is what makes it fun, the reality is in the time-slip... and the hardware [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img].
My oh my... setting the bar with the predapuss... 800cc vs. 574cc? Just to level the playing field out a little, I'll run NOS. Still haven't had the nads to put the Boss Noss system on yet. That will happen soon though. I just have to have some brackets fabbed up to mount the bottle. Once I get that done, I'll call up Glen and we'll get 'er installed. We'll have to go to Beverly for some test and tune... maybe a lil' ars kickin' [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img].
Good to hear from ya BigD!
Let's get this chit runnin' for the drags! I plan on renting the Albany track again in the spring.
Disclaimer: naw... there ain't no freakin' disclaimer... Line 'em up [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]!
