Are these paddles OK for a stock Raptor 700?

Would a set of 20x11x10 Sand Stars be too much paddle for my stock Raptor?
Any reason they would not work at Sand Lake and Coos Bay (Oregon) and/or Moses Lake (Washington)?

GYT-R Engine/frame skid plate             GYT-R Nerf bars
GYT-R A-arm guards                           OMI Steering stem mount
GYT-R Aluminum radiator guard            ODI Lock-on grips

Those seem to be fine for a stock machine, at least for Silver Lake. But I would think that if they are ok for smaller bikes, you should be fine.
So many upgrades, so little money.

They are more then fine.  Most people run sand stars on a stock raptor.

I have won many of drag races against modded/drag banshees with my sand stars.
Just a little 81hp trail bike.

I run 22" 7 paddle Haulers on my 2-mod raptor (Stock exhaust with Phoenix tip), and I ride dunes at over 8000ft.  I figure I'm about the same power as a stock rappy at sea-level.

Dragging, or climbing I have had great results with the 22's, so you definately won't be over paddled with the stars IMO

I ran stars at first but needed more clearance since the place i ride has trees with hillshoots and other crap.  They should work ok but I was more confident once I put haulers on mine but depends on your riding area, the machine, and your riding habits.

Aaron we are heading up this weekend, just FYI.  Mine ran like crap a couple weeks ago but my timing was off a tooth and I am not tuned.  Put timing to where it is supposed to be and gained 5-6 bike lengths....now just need to get to Epic for a re-tune.
