i'd drop one tooth in the front. I'm running stock gearing ( 15/38) and it does awesome in the trails

I was thinking about dropping a tooth, my motor just doesnt seem to handle the high gearing!

a slip-on pipe and the 15 tooth sprocket should give you the bottom end you need.

yes it still takes off good but realy bogs down when not in the high rpms or going up hills. should be ordering the motoworks slip on in the next day or so and mabe a new filter because mine is toast.

i think all air filters do about the same really, so you cant go wrong.
