gearing advice

[brent701]

i know how everything works if he is wanting to race mx he should have a 13 in the front period and what he wants in the rear is up to him on a honda the stock set up sucks the rear will dial him in a little closer to what he is wanting the front is a drastic change but he must start out with a 13 in the front on the honda you should run a 40 in the rear so for a good setup on a honda is 13/40 other atvs are different it also depends on your money if you can only chage 1 i would change the front and if he is wanting to run desert throw all of this out the window and when it comes to gearing it is all preference on how you want your atv to move and depends how your engine can handle it as well and what other parts you have run 13/40 on the honda and you will be fine

I am just saying. My LTR is 14/37 stock and i am at 13/37 mnow and have good pull through out. with a built engine i mayhave to go to 14/37 again or 14/38-39. He should drop to a 13 front and keep rear stock. -1 front +2 back is almost dropping 2 in the front. thats really low. You don't wanna be shifting 2-3 or more gears after and before each turn

hehe nice to have..

OP.. just do a 13T front and go ride it and see how it feels. I have no clue of how fast or whatever you are. I learned gearing only fixed some of my lowerness. most the time i was just able to pick up the pace and he gearing was perfect.

I never hit 2nd at speedy and only hit 5th in 2 spots
