JackFlash Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 How late will you be on the lake? I can be there around 3:30. And where can I find you? (The member attackpainter cannot receive any new messages) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedytriple Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 You don't need to go to a lake just come up to cleveland and ride on I-71 if you want to ice race I got to do it for two hours yesterday on my ride home from work. Even in my soobie I was having a hard time keeping any speed up without shifting sideways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 If you do this again in the summer when it's warm I'll come down and watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkow97 Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 how much bike prep is there for ice racing? Are we just talking about a tire insert to protect the tube, and then go ride, or are you guys using the "real" ice stud screws, and adding the big (safer) fenders to keep people from turning into ground beef? I would ice-ify my 19" stock front wheel on the XR, and then look into picking up a spare rear rim... I already have an extra rear (street) tire for it, but it's not like the knobbies matter on ice anyway. I would assume it's all about the studs.

Have you ever prices out actual Ice Racing tire. they are insane. You can get screw in ones that work... well enough maybe.. never actually did it just did research last year when a thread like this came up. http://www.frpoffroad.com/Fredette-Racing-Products-Motorcycle-ice-tires-FRP-studded-Left--Right-turn-detail.htm?productid=-162909 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 What if you drilled from the inside of the tire? That would make for some gnarly studs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
attackpainter Posted January 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 why bother making a set of tires when im offering up a bike that already has a set of $600 Craig Pickett tires on it?. And you can ride the 450 if you want. ..... The lake was pretty good last weekend although we only had one plow to move snow. I know the forecast is calling for rain on sat but we will be back out Sunday. A few AMA pro flat trackers are coming to play as well.
