I run 22" zippers when I drag..I just have to launch in 1st instead of 2nd..(with stock gearing) I know the zippers are alot lighter than the holeshots but if you have a 13t front sprocket you should be fine

Where I ride its pretty necessary to have 22''s. So to me there's no question. I still hit the swingarm skidplate regularly.

I'm running 22" razor 2's on the back with the 23's on the front. Absolutely sick.If you run the razors you'll want something good up front too because the front end won't be on the ground very often and when it is, you'll want it to hook up solid. I'm selling some tires too on the for sale page.

On a 400ex? Stock gearing?

I run 22's on my '05 and hardly noticed any power loss. They are essential for aggressive trail riding on a 400 IMO.

I went down 1 tooth on the front gear and it's an '01.
