gearing

[Jcbowhunter]

i bought an 06 450er last night and rode it today and i have one question.

Why would anyone put a 15 tooth front sprocket on the front with a 38 on the back?

[Jcbowhunter]

is there any benefit to making the thing do 90 mph? i figureing it about that.

HA, I would say no unless you plan to be in many high speed pursuits. :eek2:

To each, his own I suppose

i ordered a 13 tooth. 15 is way to much for the woods.

I thought my gears were long when i bought mine with a 12/38 setup. but now im used to it and like it. There just right for the woods/trail

i forget the number but i dropped one tooth up front when i bought mine in 04 since i was used to my 250r at the time and it was great in t he woods i never changed it back
