best all around gearing for 300ex

[fastmofo]

alright, just about to order my tires, sending out the money tommorow, going with kenda klaw 20x11x8 for my 300ex. my mods motor wise are full big gun exhaust, k&n w/no lid and jetted..

right now im geared 13/39 on 22s :rolleyes: but im going to a 20" rear, my riding is usually trails, pits, and some high speed runs, some of my friends say keep gearing, other say go to a 14t front. what do you guys say? thanks much!!! and sorry, i know similar questions like this have been asked before, just couldnt find anything for my particular needs in search.

look man i have 1987 250x well 293x and i have 20"s with a 14t and 38t i love it works good and looks good you will like it.

[fastmofo]

hey thanks, with the 14t will my top speed be similar to what it is now?

[400ex men]

yes about like. but if you get the 20"s you will have to have a 14t are you will not have n-e top end with out the 14t

If you don't plan on buying new wheels, you want 20X11X9 not 8's when I went to 20's I kept the stock gearing, felt great in the woods.

i have 8" wheels right now. thanks guys, ill buy a 14t, switch it for the riding im doing. easy enough

I have a 2003 300ex with 20inch rear razrs and I have 13/36 gearing and it works great for me but you lose a little low end but not much

I am running 20" Knarly's with stock gearing and I think it's great for tight trails. I like the low end torque which also helps when climbing a hill. If you ride higher speeds I would go with the 14T though. You'll just have to trim or remove your case saver.
