What paddles are you going to run? Are you running up a hill or on the flats? Do you have to deal with whoops?

Go with a 6 over then. Unless you go to a more agressive tire like an ultra buff 9 blade (which i recommend) then id go with an 8, just to ensure later of if you did more work that it would still sufice

You'll be fine on the line, a little tire spin is what you want anyways. If your tire spin gets out of hand then go to a more aggressive tire. What swingarm are you going to run?
