ok i guess ill mave to do some more modifications....hey wes you think ill be ok with 16-39 with a passion stoker. im looking for a good all around gear i can drag against my buddies in the field/sand and still be able to kick ass in the woods.

16-39 is pretty high but it will pull it.

 

it depends how you race. i usually cant go from 1st to 2nd gear speed shifting so i run a 15-41 gearing now and can start in sec.

 

16-39 you can wind out the gears but if you hit 6th gear you better be ready its like 75mph + too fast for me . IMO

 

in sand it depends on what tire you run stock works good for sand around here.

15 38 HA, that sounds like my LT 250 :P 75mph up hill so far on pavement

I run a 14-40 with my 12 port. 8 paddle extrmes.. I could gear high but I actualy utilize my 6th gear... Hill shoot in 4th and can almost but not quite hit 5th (I also have a little problem with spark but I know I am within a tooth of being set up correct for what I do...

 

I wanted to do 15-43 but RMATV does not sell a rear 43 tooth sprocket + I owuld need to lengthen my chain.

 

I think a 14-39 would be perfect for me. I would not plan on running a 16 tooth up front for drag racing...15 38 sounds possible to me if you were runing the same tires and expect your bike to have about 12 HP more than mine. Personaly I would do a 15 41 to start and go from there cause after you cut your chain you will have to add a second master link to re-size it. plus rear sprockets are cheap so long as you don't use a weird size like 38 tooth :P
