biggun6ss Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 I tried the 15 tooth but I didnt like it. On pavement I had way more top end but in sand it doesnt like to pull my paddle tires in 5-6. I am thinking about going back to a 14 tooth and maybe a 38-39 in the back. Anyone else run this setup and how does it work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blue Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 What sand tires are you running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggun6ss Posted October 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 I am running 9 paddle haulers. I know they have to much paddle for my mods, but that is all Rocky Mountain had at the time. With a 14 tooth I pull them fine all the way through 6th. I just want to have a little more top end pull but the 15 tooth made me bog and wouldnt let me wrap all the way through the power band in 5th or 6th.

biggun6ss Posted October 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 Or should I just buy some 7 paddle haulers and save the nine paddle for when I buy some mor HP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trex banshee Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 a 9 paddle should not be too much in my mind, i have never heard anyone running a seven paddle on a banshee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggun6ss Posted October 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 With a 14 tooth front sprocket, I can launch in second, wrap all the way through the powerband in every gear, but my top end isnt that good. So I switched to a 15 tooth front sprocket and I launch in first, wrap through the powerband through fourth, but in 5th and 6th it just gets about midway through the powerband and doesnt want to pull anymore. Sometimes I cant even shift into 6th without it bogging down. I just ordered a 39 tooth rear sprocket to help the top end a little and I am going to put the 14 tooth front back on. I am thinking of trying a buddies set of 8 paddle haulers and see how it feels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
