  1. I wouldn't go with haulers or any of the skat trax paddles. I ran them for years and I kept throwing paddles. The problem is that because they are vulcanized onto the tire carcass, they tend to come "unglued" when you hit a rock or hard pack. They do good out at Glamis for the most part but there are just too many rocks at Dumont. You'll be buying new tires a lot.

    Sand Skates are good as I'm sure you know. I run Sand Stars. Stay away from the vulcanized paddles.

    For a good reference point, take a look at your paddles or anyone elses that has a few trips on them. You'll see how some of the paddles are cracked or torn. Every one of those would be a new tire if your running skats

    the rocks at dumont can be brutal, but ive never had a problem. i run 7 paddle haulers and hook up great.

    if you rip a paddle you dont have to throw it away. skat-trak replaces each blade for 6 bux.

  2. a red header is normal.

    sounds a little lean,

    is this popping sound a backfire under decelaration? full throttle? all gears or is this in neutral while its parked?

    bump up your main jet a few sizes, its easy and fast to do. you dont have to take the carb off.

    backfiring can also be caused by an exaust leak, my bike was backfiring and found out its because i had a missing header bolt.PismoBeach090.jpg
