14 t sprocket

[81 clark racing]

hi i was wondering if i put a 14t sprocket on will i lose any top end? and will it affect my over all top speed?

[dillin1234]

depends what is the stock sprocket size? for example if stock is 13 and u put a 14 on you will loose bottom end and gain top. if stock is 13 and u put 12 on you gain low end and loose top end.

its 400ex 15t stock i belive

[dillin1234]

if it is 15 stock and you drop to a 14 u loose some top end and gain bottom end.

You gotta be careful with what gearing you put on.

EX: My bud threw on a 14 tooth front sprocket on his 450R (yes I know you have a 400, just a reference). I believe that 13 is stock. He now can't pull 5th gear.

The answer to your ? is yes and yes.

im pretty sure that the 450r comes stock with a 14t.

Its not to noticable of a difference in top end. But youll get a little bit more bottom end.

i think its a great gain on the bottom end:eek2:

[jsmith2232]

I did that to mine and there is a noticable gain in bottom end and 5 th pulls harder but you will lose about 5 mph on top end. Unless you use 5th alot then it is definitly worth it in my opinion.

the 04-05 450r has 14t stock and the 06 has 13t

i noticed that it was like it had shorter gears. you shift sooner than if you had the 15t on.

idk i got a 14t on my 400ex and i love it i mean yea you might loose 5mph but how often do you really top it out......I rather get up to speed 5 seconds quicker(IT pulls way harder!!!) and loose 5 Mph then take a long time to get up to speed with a 15T


IDk if you understand that but the 14T is a really good investment!

[jordan_m6]

if you do any kind of jumping, you may find the gears to be kinda short. thats why i put the 15t back on.

other people may feel diff.

the 04/05 450rs came stock with 14t but the 06 has 13t stock
