sorry, my bad, i ran mine installed, i clipped my track, as i do all of them, for the guards to just clear. if you just install the track, any track from camoplast, they will touch.

How about the 9830pw 121x15x1 with 144 1.25 gold digger down the middle double backers ? Will that fit my ridin style. I just want to get my purchase right. I do NOT WANT TO BE pissed installing and riding it when it rubs. I like my stuff to be nice and worry free. Or how about plastic backers vs metal backers huh? Thanks in advance as always

yes on the track, studding down the middle works ok, in hard cornering you will loose traction but it still works good. 1 1/4 studs are a little long for that track, with a 1in, 1.175 work good. 1 1/4 are close and can touch the tank bow down section. if you throw away the stock guards up top and install a set of polaris style aluminum guards it will help to hold the middle of the tunnel from bowing down fromt the weight of the tank.
never use plastic backers, they loosen, chip, break etc. use woodys round aluminum backers or the double plates.
the track will need to be clipped. leave 1/8 - 1/4 clearence between the tip of the stud and the tunnel when the track touches the guards.
if you like to go around corners fast, use 168 outside patern.

Lots of rain here, just bein a bum, I hate that feeling I am the kind of guy that has to always be busy. NICE ride, like the color. I thought you bought a Ford. Oh well a Chevy will work I guess. Live about 10-15 min from novi.
