Need help choosing what paddles to run. I currently have skat trak haulers 20x10x10 8 paddle. My bike is fairly stock. It has T-5 pipes, cool head, +4 swingarm, runs 50/50 92 and race fuel. Gearing is 13 front 41 rear and I weigh 285. Obviously I don't drag race with it and don't really hill shoot much either. Should I try a V paddle or stick with the hauler? What size? Is 22" to tall in an extreme???

 

 

Thanks in advance!!!

I think you have a pretty good setup. I don't think you would be happier with v paddles. Just stick with what you have.

A +4" swingarm usually needs quite a bit more tire than those 20" 8 paddles and the 10" wheel hurts too. A stock motor on a bike with a +4 swingarm/285lb rider kinda needs bigger tires but doesnt have a ton of HP for a lotta paddle.

For that setup I would think a 21x12x8 7 paddle will float and hook much better with a 285lb rider. I personally like the 21x12x8 tires , they are very close in size to the 22s but are noticeably lighter. The 21" is much larger and will float much better than those 20s on a 10" wheel. No V paddles with a +4. IMO.
