I went through the same thing and I don't think there is any performance lost by having it that way. That being said, I couldn't stand looking at it. It was that noticeable. I put 1.5" spacers on the back and love how it looks now.
and i ike your dog connection. i'd like to ride my bird dog.haha, me too.
thanks. why 1.5 vs. 1.0? ? maybe i need to do the math mm/cm vs. inches?
I thought I read that some 14" wheels rubbed. And being new here also, why would you go from 15" to 14" wheels? My learning curve.I have 14x7 5+2 wheels with 32s and the 1.5" on each side put me where I needed to be. I forget my widths but it's pretty damned wide. It's great in the west where things are more open but here on the east coast it can be tight fitting through our trails.
thanks. i'll stay this way for a while. no worries on mud/snow!In my experience, 8-10 psi is great offroad at slower speeds but it gets wonky on hard pack dirt roads above about 40mph. I'm sure all tires are different but mine seem to have the best overall performance for mixed riding (roads, rocks, mud, snow) at around at 11-12psi. I have 32x10 Sedona Rockabillies
Not sure if there's really much difference in brands from spacer to spacer. But one thing to look out for is the Honda bolt pattern is the same bolt pattern as the Can-Am's. So you will have manufacturers claim they have a 1.5-in spacer for your Honda Talon but when you get it in the lug nuts are a different thread pitch. That happened to me. I ordered another set of spacers and they came in with Can-Am lug nuts. My cousin had the same issue with his but he ended up just popping the Can-Am lug nuts out and putting some Talon ones in. I currently have the Dragonfire 1.5 spacers and they seem to be doing fine.thanks, hometeam and everyone. looks like 1.5 is the best option to equalize. are some manufacturers recommended over others, or some aftermarket sites?
