what was your setup when you tried the 8 paddle haulers russell? I have 7 paddle 74 ro that i normally run and 10 paddle haulers with a 76 ro i think. My bike runs good with both but better with the 7. Thats at pismo though

I think his setup is like how my bike is setup at Pismo johnny...

oh ok just wondering. i would think that more paddle would be better there than at pismo right?

It's a 363 Sphinx. 22x11x8 8pdle hauler. There not full buffs though. I run struts at the track and I set it up so the swing arm is parallel with the ground. With the frame level as well. I did not hook good enough. My 60ft times were slow but my trap speed was good. Really just learning this track stuff as I go and have to do it on a budget.

how did your 8 paddle do at pismo? just trying to get an idea of the difference between the track and pismo so that im not completely lost when choosing tires ya know? I get what your sayin though

just take both sets with you johnny... your 10paddle and 7paddle and try them both out! and see what times you get... lol then ill try your 10paddles too haha

johnny22 · « **Reply #82 on:** October 26, 2013, 11:17:59 PM »

i probably will. haha im good with that. I have to get some honda wheels for them though.

I just cant see a saber not pulling 10 paddle haulers up any hill, your motor had no problems with 14 paddle extremes in the flats.

johnny22 · « **Reply #84 on:** October 26, 2013, 11:33:43 PM »

im still talking about my 370 dave. I figure the saber will take a little while before i get it to where i can run it right.

rsss396 · « **Reply #85 on:** October 26, 2013, 11:38:49 PM »

Ok, I still think your 370 can pull the 10 paddle haulers but I maybe wrong, just depends on the how much power it makes

johnny22 · « **Reply #86 on:** October 26, 2013, 11:42:11 PM »

i think it can too. it pulls them fine in the dunes but i guess we'll find out!

PROX370R · « **Reply #87 on:** October 27, 2013, 05:50:55 AM »

your the man johnny... im really thinking about getting some 10 paddle haulers... but I wanna try some before I spend the money on them... haha

johnny22 · « **Reply #88 on:** October 27, 2013, 10:50:47 AM »

Haha yeah i get that! They have yamaha wheels now bit i'll get some honda wheels before then. The drag axle makes it easy to run any paddles we have

Johnny you should be able to run the 10's. My bike dyno's right under 70hp. It wasn't even hooking hard enough to worry about needing a bar. It just blew the tires off at the line.

My plan is to run some 10pdl's and take some weight out of the lock-up so it will slip a little on the initial hit.
