gearing for mudding??

[chris200x]

Hey Drew! Long time no speak.

I couldn't agree with you more... Boogers are great mud/trail tires.. and as for the Maxxis.. well I'm quite familar with those too!

I had a 200s, and I bought some mudbug tires they were awsome in the mud!
and did ok on trails but you have to keep them off pavment, it will eat'em up quick

[bigred1]

How can I determine bolt pattern on my 200m/200e three wheelers? Does anyone know of different wheel options, or can I only use standard 9x9 steel wheels

[McDerry]

Should be 4/150

thats why i had swamp fox tires. i took my trike up down the roads as much as i did threw the mud. them swamp fox tires held up great. still are holding too. i only payed 50 bux each brand new for them here in town.

not sure why took so long to find a sight with a larger selection of 25x12x9 tires but this seems to be a descent one www.denniskirk.com (not sure how to add a link in message yet) also can someone tell me how to add part of a previous post (like a quote) to a new post

[RedRider_AK]

Yeah, Dennis Kirk is a good site. I don't like their new search method, but to each their own.

hey bigred1 you just taught urself how to add the link into the message lol just type the url like you did or copy/paste the url from the website,..... and to quote somebodys message look at the bottom right of each post and ull see it says "quote" just click on that and it will open up the reply window with the quote in it...
oh and as for the tires yes dennis kirk is a pretty good site for tires and many other parts, some of their tire prices are a little high but one thing to note is they have a "low price guarantee" for tires so if you find them cheaper shipped to your door on any other website (excluding ebay) they will beat it by a buck, i know its only a buck but its nice if you find them on a smaller not very well known website that u dont really trust and i order from them quite a bit so its just kinda nice to have the lowest price from a website u know u can trust with fast shipping, 30 day money back guarantee and etc, and its free shipping if the order is over $100!
also, here are a couple of other links to check out for tires and etc
www.rockymountainatv.com is cheap and has a nice tire selection with free shipping on orders over 100$, they also have a few other parts for our trikes..
trax motorsports is also another place with a huge tire selection heres their link http://traxms.com/Merchant2/merchant...Products-Tires
and heres another site that i dont know much about but looks like they have pretty good prices and some SERIOUS looking mud tires! http://www.mud-throwers.com/atv_mud_tires
sry for the long post lol hope it helps,

yea guess that was prety easy huh, thanks for the tips and i'll look into those other sites

[bigred1]

using a smaller front sprocket will lower my gearing right? so my question is would it be harder for my 200 to sling mud out of the treads do to lower tire speed or should i look at a smaller rear sprocket to turn tires faster?? i think i figured that right let me know if i'm not understanding this right. thanks

[ccdhowell]

With a smaller front sprocket, with a given tire speed, the engine speed will be more, and thus, give more torque to turn more agressive tires, at least that's the idea. A larger rear sprocket slow engine speed for a given tire speed, maybe slows it too much and not enough torque to turn the big meats, you bog down; have too much traction and not enough power to turn the wheels. You probably want to drop one tooth on the front sprocket and try it. It will feel noticably more jumpy, wind out sooner in each gear and sling mud like there's no tomorrow. Good luck, Chris

[McDerry]

I personally mud my 200e in low range. You end up using 3rd gear in most stuff but you have two gears lower if the mud is thicker.

I'm running dirt devils on the rear and a turfbuster upfront.
