Ultimateduner Posted January 15, 2004 Report Posted January 15, 2004 For all you guys who go to glamis what gear ratio are you running on olds hill? I am running a stock 13:41 ratio And i am wondering what is the best ratio for going up the hill? for all you who don't go to galmis olds hill is huge sand hill. Quote
ledofthezep Posted January 15, 2004 Report Posted January 15, 2004 I thought stock was 14:41? I'm running the same gearing you are. Depending on your mods, you could probably go to a ?stock14? or a 15 tooth front & be able to pull it a bit faster up the long hill. Just MHO... Quote

Actually there were 2 or 3 years that came with a 13 tooth front and 22" tires. I think it was 87-89. Quote
Ultimateduner Posted January 16, 2004 Author Report Posted January 16, 2004 I dunno I counted 13 but maybe I am wrong because my banshee is a 2003 Quote
Yamahammer Posted January 16, 2004 Report Posted January 16, 2004 it should be stamped on the gear if you look close around the inside of the gear just under the chain my 03 has a 14 but i am going to a 13 this next trip Quote
Justintoxicated Posted January 16, 2004 Report Posted January 16, 2004 I believe stock is 14 tooth, so take a look. My favorite ratio with FMF pipes and a K&N was 13:41 I could easily pull 4th and almost 5th up the steep side. 14:41 was a little better on the less steep side, since you don't need to drop a tooth to get into 4th on that side of the hill... I like the steep side better for racing though, especialy against 4 strokes Quote
