[2004400ex]

I have a 14/38 with 20" tires

i was thinking of going a 14/36 with 22" tires
other option would be a 16/38 with 22" tires

How close is this?? I just punched in my redline( sparks cdi) and my sprocket sizes, it gave me 88mph..

In order for the calculator to work you have to know your top speed with current gearing and tire setup.

type in your info, then adjust rpms till you match your top speed, then you can accuratly know what your rpms are "if your even hitting top rpm" and make good estimations on further adjustments.

I can get my 440ex to 70mph in 4th gear on a 1/8th mile drag strip, using 22in tires.

from my experience, I would reccomend 13/39, 22s.
