SSR pitbike FINALLY!!!

[lilws6]

finally after messing around with the company for ever i got my pit bike. Not the right color because i wanted black but what ever. since my digital cam. is MIA i used the cell for a few pics. I already stripped the stickers and me and my buddy wrote on it for fun just until i paint it. We studded the tires and i have to add more tomarow cuz we could barely turn but we could move out pretty good. two days ago my buddy broke the clutch perch on his so we got one today for a cr125. not today he dumped it and broke the lever. we did not get a lever cuz they didn't have any so he'll get one tomarow hope fully so we can tear up the ice sum more. i'll get more pics once the camera gets found. heres how they sit now in the basement.

Whats the best way to stud these things we have 3/8" cold cutters all round so they don't poke the tube and i added a few more then we had yesterday. They work awsome but about 30 min after i started i was sliding all over again and looked at least half of the studs in the rear were gone :( is there a better way to keep them from pulling out or put longer ones in and not stab the tube? I know a few guys on here ride these on ice someones gata be able to help

I've seen studs that go in from the inside and then theres a nut on the outside, theyre pointy and more spike looking. But you would have to take the tire off to put them in.

^^x2 i studded my old 1985 honda 250r dirtbike i had its either you get the ones that go from the inside or what i did.....put an assload of screws in each nobby. i think i had 3 in each on the front and 4 in each on the back. i got some good screws from sportland 2
but i was able to ride wheelies down the root river :) i never really had a problem with them rippen out. mayby its just the soft rubber tire... idk




edit: maybe try putting some sort of glue on the screw b4 you put it into the tire... not sure if it will work at all or just be a major wast of time but its an idea...

[lilws6]

I was thinking some kind of glue but i'de have no idea what

hex screws in the knobs is what I always put on my 4 wheeler

go buy new tires, seriously. well to do the studding the right way it will take alot of time. go to the local motocross place ie motosports factory or Ride, get the size of tire you need. tell them you want the hardest rubber compound tire to put studs in. then take a worn street bike tire (with some rubber on it still) and cut out the center section to the length/width of the studd pattern to wrap the inside the tire. then get a screw that will go through the tire and into the new liner (street bike tire). not i have seen people run cut carpet also for a cheap liner. for a pit bike that cud work. my ice tires on my 250f look like this,

(these are profesional built i dont have the time so i spent the $)

Holly shit theres no where near that many studs in my tire. shoulod i just look at gettigna new rear tire cuz the fronts seem to be fine. but i think your right the rubbers pretty soft. i don't have any old tires laying around i don't thinki have any carpet either so right now i'm kinda SOL
