Gearing?

[bigboy]

I have a 465 10 mil with 38mm alcohol carbs/cpi out frames pipes and i weight 240lbs. Its in a stock frame also. What would be the right gearing for my bike to run 1/8th mile asphalt? All input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

6 speed? TRY 14/ 41 THEn go up on the front sproket till you have enough gearing.. then fine tune with the rear.

If your running a 20" tire your gonna need 19/38 or so if the tires grow at the other end. If they don't, you may need a 20 on the front.. I've never ran the 8th, but you'll need to be geared to run 100+ mph, and that motor should pull it. 16/41 and you'll be out of gear at 1/2 track.
