Will I loose too much acceleration (or torque) on a 250 2-stroke ATV by removing 2 teeth of the rear sprocket? Is that OK or should I go with just 1 less in the rear sprocket. I want to get a little more top speed but without loosing too much acceleration. Anyone tryed this before?

taking 3 off the back is like adding one to the front

be careful what you plan on doing.......cause ya might find you have to buy a blank sprocket and get a machine shop to centre the bolt holes etc..

might be easier to remove the case saver and put one on the front

laters.......

ps. sent the chart to ya via email for working out gear ratios


also NICE RIG...........man thats a cool trike
