Just got my 22" razors gonna get them mounted tomorrow and see how much i like em. :)
 
what type of riding do you do? 22" seems kinda tall, i know its the stock size but sorta tall....
 
i have 22's on my warrior and they dont seem that tall, i dont get why everyone says there tall. I berialy get threw half the trails with them too becuase the ruts are soo big out here.
 
I do alot of trail ridin with ruts and mud so i figure ever inch i can get i need.
 
I guess it is all am atter of personal preference i love 20" with a 14t front and stock rear sprocket, hopefully when i get done with mods, move up to a 15t front
 
The only problem i got is i cant get them on! My uncle owns a tire shop and i still cant get them on. When Rocky mountain shipped them they put alot of pressure on the making it only about and inch from the front bead to the back. For some reason i cant get them on, i think im going to have to put them on the spreader. Any other tips?
 
heard it works if you take a ratchet tie down strap and put it around them, then cinch it down really tight. I've never tried it but it would be worth a shot.
 
i work in a tire shop part of the time, so heres an idea....put the tire on the get a tube and put it in...air it up and let it set for a day or two then let the air out, take out the tube and see if the tire will take bead???? idk if it i will work but give it a shot
 
Yeh I've used that but its going to fry my razor sign on the sides. I may get a tube.
 
I always find it helps to lube up the bead and rim. Good tire soap works best but dish soap is a decent substitute.
 
Tried dish soap and still no luck. These are a fucker to get on! Im about to pay yamaha to do them. If not im gonna get too pissed at them and **** is going to fly.
