Do you have a clutch kit? One thing i did(i have a 700 twin but same principle) I put a commit clutch and a epi clutch kit along with a heelclicker extreme performance belt, it brought out more of the bottom end torque. I havent seen any aftermarket gears, but you might look into the other models to see which one has the lowest gear sets and swap them out.

About all you can do is clutch it. Only seen gear reduction kits for the 700/800's and side by sides.

Clutch Kit is the answer. I have heard DALTON ot Rick Ritter are excellent choices.
