Maxxis Roosters..

[QuadJunkies]

Im curious how many of you have rode a quad with them??? I tried to order my favoite straight paddle today, to find out itsback ordered for 6-7 wks!:eek: (turbo paddles) I guess my word of mouth got out too much!!:o JP... anyhow, I priced the HAulers and the Roosters and decided to try sometinhg different this time and got them. should be here in 2-4 days!! I cant wait to see how they look and how they perform.!! I think on a smaller quad would be too much of a paddle? Anyhow can anyone tell me how they do?? Thanks!! Tina :)

[QuadJunkies]

Wow.:eek: no one has run them huh???? Well I guess ill be the first.......:D

[twisted threads]

Are the Roosters the V paddle or the strait paddle??

[yello300ex]

my friend had maxxis roosters and trust me....do not get them...the second time he went to the dunes with them every single paddle ripped...try some skat trak extremes

[QuadJunkies]

what do they weigh comepared to the Haulers? I just put some Hauler Extrems on my R and they seem to hook up really well. I would like to get some drag lights paddles and see how they work. Also I like the SandTiresUnlimited Padla Brats.

[RuffRyder400ex]

they look good

[JOEX]

I was wondering about these tires myself. Glad someone here became our guinie pig:p j/k.
Any thoughts on what the ripples between the paddles do?
What about weight? My Haulers on .125's weigh next to nothing.

Also I like the SandTiresUnlimited PaddleBrats. The Hauler weighs roughly 11 bls and the maxxis weighs 12 ..It is very odd, did some measuring and comparedc the maxxis size to my turbo paddles, which are suppose to be the exact same size....... well Maxxis are LOT smaller.Called and told RM ATV about our measurements because they are measuring 10 inch tire and heres the proof:eek: NO FAIR!!!:grr: hes gonna have a nice set of smaller tires for the dunes this year . Hey Ryan, can you post a pic of the paddlebrats? Arent they made for kids quads? I cant pistie them but I know Ive senn them...Adn Ive never heard of a drag lights paddle would be cool to see....... OK heres my Turbo padddles they are a 11 wide.......

[QuadJunkies]

ok now heres Maxxis version of 11 inch.....:rolleyes: Im glad they were amller thats what I wanted anyhow!!:D

[QuadJunkies]

BIG difference. thats ok though I still swear by my Trubo paddles;)

[QuadJunkies]

and the ribs are just for extra traction :)

[QuadJunkies]

Ill find out how well they hook up next week end drag racing.....:cool:

[QuadJunkies]

they are def. a good looking tire too.......

Hey tina do you guys just mainly stay in the sand at weiser or do you venture off other places from there. I will bring my Haulers anyway. I haven't put them on since I went wider to see what it looks like but I will next weekend. It also looks like I will be heading over to St. A's when you guys go in July:D :D :D :D

[J.A.B. Racing]

Those new paddles look good QJ :D I like the look of them :blah: I got the Haulers 7 paddle Extremes and they are awsome but my bike is still stock so I think it boggs a little:huh my bud is going to run them next weekend at Spinreel on his bike :cool: I think they will do good on his its pretty built :devil:

It also looks like I will be heading over to St. A's when you guys go in July:D :D :D :D Troy goes off onto the trails a bit, I dont much because I usually have the kids and cant venture off for too long, I always take both my Rarz to play in and switch off to the dand tires too. I am saving my tubos for St. Anthonys so I dont tear them up at Weiser so I run Sand devils. I got them for free in exchange for Troys heel guards off the Predator since he didnt need them when he got his nerfs so I couldnt pass that one up.. Thats awesome that you can go up with us in July!!! You will have to come the night beofe for the BBQ and meet everyone.....

Heres a few pics of what it looks like on the Predator......:cool:

That Predrtor is a nice looking machine:) If I were in the market for a new quad that would be at the top of the list;)
In the third pic (I think) it looks kinda wide, not in a bad way... maybe it is the angle or the pic or the tires. Do you know off hand the width? Well I suppose I couild get off my butt and look it up myself:rolleyes: lol! Just wondering...

ONE day of riding and the paddles are ALL peeling off inthe center of the cup!! And these are suppose to be for a High HP quad??? Total garbage....Dont even blink an eye at these paddles guys....Im gonna posy a few pics and shoe you what they look like after getting through 3 days on them..This sand is a rougher sand and all, but these tires shoulod have NEVER done this after one day of wear....:( Im going back to what I know works... my Turbo paddles,but not befroe giving MAxxis a piece of my mind and emailing themn a pics of the tires, if I get lucky, maybe with reciept in hand and a pic to email them ,they will replace them, but Im not going to hold my breath......:rolleyes: Wish I had better review,but I would hate for any of you to watset your money on them........

[JOEX]

That is too bad :(...I was expecting a decent product from a big name company like Maxxis for the $$ they are charging for their products.
I hope this an isolated incident rather than a respected company gouging the consumer:( :grr: :(

Let 'em have it!!!

Tina that sucks that there ripping all ready!!:confused: Where did you go riding at? If I was you I would send them back and get your money back also (if you can). What bike were they Roosters on?

[Natertot426ex]

I was there to see them. I was amazed that it happened. It's almost like they didn't use a hard enough rubber for them. Thanks for the food and stuff Tina. I had a great time. I laid at home most of the day yesterday because My back hurt and it still hurts today. I sure wish I knew what I did to it.

I am sorry to hear about your Dad. My Dad had one when he was 35. I was too young to know what was going on but I remember going and seeing him at the Hospital. I think my back will be better in a couple days. I have a slipped disk and it acts up a little. I just have to pop my back into place and it take a couple days for the pain to go. Let me know on the dates of the race out at pleasant valley. I may go.

[QuadJunkies]

heres the pic, RMATV is goingto take alook at my email pics and determine whether they will let me exchange them for a set of Extreme Haulers instead..

[QuadJunkies]

as you can see. not ONE single rock chip..........Maxxis better come through on this thats all I have to say.....:(

[XANDADA]

Daaang, that stinks...what a rip-off:(
I'd bet their gonna say that it looks like you rode them on hardpack or the street and aren't gonna refund the $:mad:

Good luck and thanks for sharing the info. If I ever need a sand tire I certainly won't be looking at those!

[QuadJunkies]

I dont doubt it, but I have a pic and the date of the pic over the wk end showing pics of where I was riding,if that aint good enough,, well, they can bite me then I guess,Im not out to rip them off like they may think I am, a paddle hould last for more than one-two days..:(......Ill let you know what the outcome is......

[own2424]

That sucks, I thought their quality was supposed to be good. I saw some guy at Glamis with a z400 with those, looks like they were holding up alright. Well, I hope you get everything worked out right!

[twisted threads]

[J.A.B. Racing]

That really sucks those paddles looked great but after seeing what happened to them I won't ever look in to them:ermm: My Extremes held up great on my buds bike and its high horsepower:D Hope they don't stiff ya:grr: Are those Blue plastics on the 400? :eek2:

[roostin_dale]

wow that sucks QJ!

When i went to little sahara I picked them up and laid them on the counter..the worker said"Put those back.."

me:I just want to buy them man!
Worker:No you don't..they are the worst paddles i have ever used...go get those sand sharks over there!


So i picked up the sand sharks and put them on..rode with them for four days and held up great..i also took them back again and still held up for 3 more days....we are headin back here pretty soon..

[chad400ex]

I'll sell you some Geckos....give you a great deal!!! J/K....I'm still riding on those crummy tires, but at least they haven't fallen apart. Glad I didn't wait longer and buy the Roosters. I'm really thinking about a set of those Turbo Paddles or Extreme Haulers. I'm picking my quad up today from my "hook-up" over at Powroll. They did a little "heart surgery". Now I've got a shiny new J.E. high compression piston with high temp coating, hotcams stage 2, and a few other things. Still a "400"....I think I'll surprise a few people out there, but I'm gonna need better paddles to use this new power.

[J.A.B. Racing]

LOL :huh Thats funny I thought it looked a little small:blah:

RMATV forward the pics to Maxxis, they think they were rode on dirt roads all day.....JUST AS I THOUGHT... So easy to blame the rider,So, again we called and talked to RMAVT and got a supervisor involved and told them we are running low on time for paddles since our trip is coming soon and that if you looked at each pic she would see......NO ROCK CHIPS:mad: and that paddle was splitting in the cup NOT CAUSED FROM ROCKS. she was surprised when this was brouhgt up and asked if we could please send them to them and they would "TRY" to swap them out and fight it out with the manufacter, she said she will call me today again after talking with a few others cause I dont want to pay to ship them and be out my tires too if they dont swap them out. I sent them around 20 pics and they were good pics so hopefdully ill find out more today...

[Natertot426ex]

Hey Tina if they don't beleive you I will vouch for you since I was there when it happened. Tell them you have a few people that were there and have them all give them a peice of there mind!

[QuadJunkies]

good news!!!!!!!!!!:) :cool: :D RMATV called me today, and they deciced to go ahead and send out my paddles today!!I got extreme Haulers 20x10x10-8 paddle)the rims I ordered separate at time I couldnt get the tire I wanted) So llooks like I may be out shipoing them back, but the Roosters were replaced.RMATV went as far as to say we have done so much business with them and wanted to make sure we were taken care of ,even if they have to eat it on the tires....:eek2: Now thats what I call good service! I hope Maxxis takes care of them as well as they have us,they really went the extra mile especially shipping out new ones before getting the old ones back. I thin/ they trully believed us that the tires were in fact CRAP, and after seeing the pics and talking on the phone ,they know were not some punk kids dragging them on ashault of gravel.......now I cant wait to see how those extremes work!!!!!
:blah: :macho :cool:

[twisted threads]

Im glad to see RMatv treat you so well. I have had nothing but good things to say about RMatv..there the best. And for the Extremes ....I think you will be very happy with them. :cool:

[J.A.B. Racing]

Thats Great:D I think u will like the Extremes :devil: I do
