what about the hooosiers????

ml450r

12-10-2009, 01:15 PM

I will be running hoosiers when I race. Those are just new tires I had last year, so I put them on my "show" wheels. I normally race on the hiper wheels. The alum wheels are so hard to keep clean.

Yep, pretty tight racing, looked fun. I wanted to race Saturday but had to work. I raced Sunday but the track was a lot different.

Yeah, I saw Jay's video of Sunday's race.

Do the clamps holding the reseviors on the shock something that come with it, or did you buy those. I've been trying to find something like that to make my shocks piggyback.

There like $150 from Baldwin or SF. They come with clamp, polished or black and a new line from shock to res. So the shock needs to be serviced at the time you install.
