barbwire Posted March 22, 2005 Report Posted March 22, 2005 IF I HAVE A -1 OR -2 SWINGARM ON MY SHEE WILL MY 22 INCH RAZERS RUB ?ALSO WHEN INSTALLIN A 12 TOOTH SPROCKET,WILL I NEED TO SHORTEN THE CHAIN? IM PLANING TO DO BOTH MODS AT THE SAME TIME.THANKS Quote
Blue Duece Posted March 22, 2005 Report Posted March 22, 2005 a shortened swing arm means your dirt riding......why in gods name would you wanna 12 tooth counter sprocket?........... Quote
Banshee17Racing Posted March 22, 2005 Report Posted March 22, 2005 No, 22's shouldn't rub. I've got a -2 and had studded Spider Tracs on mine. But like Blue Duece said....why the 12 tooth sprocket? Quote
barbwire Posted March 22, 2005 Author Report Posted March 22, 2005 ALL I RIDE IS WOODS TRAILS A FRIND THOUGHT A 12 WOULD GEAR IT DOWN AND BE BETTER.I HAVE A STOCK SPROCKET ON NOW,GUESS I SHOULD LEAVE IT ON ? Quote
Proquad101 Posted March 22, 2005 Report Posted March 22, 2005 I wouldnt put a 12 tooth sprocket on I would put a 13/ 42, with that you might not have to take links out of your chain. I have a -3.5 swingarm and I dont have any problems using my turf tamers. Quote
fixitrod Posted March 22, 2005 Report Posted March 22, 2005 You'll go through chains way to fast if you run a 12. I wouldn't go smaller than 14. Adjust the rear sprocket if you need to. I know it's not the cheapest way now, but it may help in the long run. You can get away with a 13, but I'd hate to run a 12. Quote
05bansh Posted March 22, 2005 Report Posted March 22, 2005 I'd run the 13, but no way the 12. I personally run a 13 tooth and love it, but i ride dunes only. Rollin on 22x11x8 Skat Traks Quote

I prefer 16/40 on trails, you might not be able to pull that so I'd be looking at maybe 15/41 or 15/42 for you. Quote
Blue Duece Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 if youve added anything to that bike (even pipes) id run a 15, bone stock the 14 will do, the key to riding trails (or anything really) is traction and acceration, a 12 just means unless your in 4th gear every time you gas that bitch its spinning,a banshee with pipes will pull a 15 with 20" tires all day long, that 12 just means the bike will never really pull, it will just hang and float through all its gears, maybe a 12 would make 6th pull to about 60mph....bottom line if your geared to tall you might have to feather the clutch, but geared way to low, the motor will spin like a son of a bitch and it will feel like your standing still Quote
