Hey all, lookig for some advise on a set up for the wood on my 400ex. I'm got a t-4 pipe, air box and rejetted. I need some advise on the front gear size and front suspension ideas////

thanks

 

If you have a stock engine stay with the 15T and 38T for woods riding. You might have a little problem with the 22 in tires in back compared to the 20 in tires are a little better with the stock gearing. When you buy front tires get the 22 in fronts dont get the 21 or 23 in. When you have some engine work done, then change the front to a 16T and you will shift less when riding in the woods.

 

Not to offend anyone but you definatly don't want to gear it up. The 22inch tires will up the gearing plus a 16.....thats the equivelent of a 17T front sprocket. I also recomned 23 inch fronts and some skid plates. A 14T front sprocket. Some good grab bars, handgaurds, a cam and possibly a high comp. piston. That will give you some good power, clearance, and protection from rocks and sticks bushes ect. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
