No I don't think you understand. I also stud up quite a few dirt bike tires for motocross & motard bikes for the winter. I sell them also.

I'm talking about the very short ice pick style snowmobile studs screwed into a set of motorcycle roadracing tires like a 120/70-17 & a 180/55-17 for my ZX6R. I mean a real ice killer machine!

All I would have to do is make em which would be way way faster than studding up a freaking set of kenda ice tires with Kold Kutters. Then mount them on my race bike. Of course I would have to remove my front fender & also move my rear tire all the way back so I dont' shred my swingarm, & also make some protective shields to keep my ass in one piece if my bike should decide to follow me in the event of a highside and eat me for lunch.

I'm talking about some wildness. I have raced on ice racing tires on moto bikes back in the day over 15-25 years ago & won many championships. I'm no newbie to that stuff. I'm trying out some real wild stuff here.

Get my drift now?

Do you think the road tire carcase may be better on a road course type track or do you prefer oval ?
If taking the cheap into knobby path.would copying pattern from pro built tire be the way to go ? and what size,brand would you recommend?

Well why did'nt ya just say so then.....thought you were just looking to do some cheap ice put'n....:)

Drift caught.

Good luck and make sure ya get some pictures up on here.

Pro built tires rock. It's the only way to go if you're serious about going fast. If you just want to beat around on the ice, you can run some screws a hard pack dirt tire and have a good time.
There's voodoo to building a good ice tire. I tried to copy a set of Rozine tires once and failed miserably.

Farrell, call me about your ice tire idea. I've played with that concept a bit and I think I figured out the setup.

Paul, you and the PO racing crew better get up here to do some riding this winter!!!!

[Scotty Ryan]

Would anyone be interested in trying out some race slicks with snowmobile studs in them? I'm thinking of making them for a race bike of mine. For real now no joke!

I would be all over it man - sounds like fun.... But unfortunately - I don't have a bike to do it with - So it looks like i'm gonna be stuck on the dirtbike :( Better then nothing tho :)

Where's there? stop talking in code guys.

[resurection]

Well know thats more like it.IT FLAT ROCKS no more MR nice guy L model!

[PaulV]

Sorry Res....

"There" is
1. Frozen Lake friendly to bikes/quads
2. Plowed Coarse
Just about anywhere we can pull it together.
So the code is, once there is ice and a plowed coarse..that is THERE.

Stay tuned..:)
