Change sprockets and or tire size!

What do you own? what do you want it to do? Maybe one of us could help you out.

well I already can pop wheelies all day but I rather go faster. I wanna make it go fast but I dont wanna sacrifice too much low end because thats where most of the power is.

banshee has it - changing front spocket is quick, easy and cheap. Pull the cover,
take out the 3 10mm bolts, and the backing plate, and then find the spring clip holding the
sprocket on the shaft. With that off, it just slides right off.

It just a trade off - you'll loose a little grunt and gain a little top end - I would just add 1 tooth on the
front - much more is going to lose too much grunt, and I wouldn't want to go too fast on a rigid
trike anyway - not too hard to bouncy bouncy right out of control.
