barry1me Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 I am planning on doing new chain/sprockets and my builder recommended 15/44. My stock setup is 14/41...the ratio is the same,,,,why would you want to do 15/44 vs 14/41? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barry1me Posted April 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 15/44 is not as tight of a turning radius as 14/41. This is the reason. plus more teeth engaged on the sprockets. 15/44 = 2.933 14/41 = 2.929 Interesting..I didnt think about the tighter turning radius. Makes sense that the 15/44 should have some less resistence loss off the front Sprocket vs the 14 tooth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoppedupandcutdown Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 You will have less rear ground clearance with a 44. Don't know if that will be a factor for you or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if that will be a factor for you or not.this, plus some rear skid plates wont work either with a 44on the rear if my memory is correct.

Big Mike NY Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 Just curious how would Honda 250R gearing work on banshees? Like say 13/38? Would that be a compatible gearing to stock banshee 14/41?? Why would banshee guys run a Honda a Honda sprocket hub? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagunCajun Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 They run it for a smaller rear sprocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
