My R is coming along nicely. Replaced the Factory Ohtsu's fronts with ITP's new Trac Star went with 23's in the front. Now to rear delima! I had a set of Shredders that are about half shredded:lol: Anyway went to ride with my MX buddy this weekend. Heads up drag race in a grass field with his 05 KFX 400 with full Yosh pipe and jet kit. We raced a half a dozen times and the only time he could catch up was when I let off of the throttle. Although 2nd and 3rd gear creates huge tire spin! Otherwise wouldn't have been close! SO has anyone ridden a machine with I Razr's in the rear ? Or is the Holeshot the way to go gain maximum traction both in grass and hard packed dirt. Those I Razr's a bit pricey.

you either want the IRAZR's or the Razr2's are the best ones. i have them on my 400ex with a 250r motor and they hook up awesome.

I went with the 20's:naughty:. They hook up really well. My buddy @ our local Suzuki/Polaris shop hooked me up with the Baja ITP's & the iRazr's.

Should hook up well. I have the razor 2's on my 400 ex and they hook up in anything... I am very impressed with them.

Not trying to be a :postwhore but I have to defintely agree with the Razrs. I currently run them (20's) on my 350 X and love it.

Nice quad, too, btw. SUPER clean

That 250r is Beautiful man...A truly clean bike. Glad to see you have fun with it still too. I just picked up a 450r and I'm still getting used to the new bike feeling but its nice to have nice things eh?

Yeah! I thought the same thing. I did some research on the Trac Stars and yes I know they are a more of an OEM replacement tire but we mostly trail ride and they handle much better than the 20 year old Ohtsu's...LOL..And they are cheap! Bonus:beer Thanks for the Hook up on the pipe Btw. Still lookin for a set of extended A-Arms for the front. I picked up a pair of 06 450r front shocks to use....
