On my old sport I always ran a 13/34 set up, I had quite a bit of power though, you may look into a set up close to that, probably more like 11or12/34.

Your 02 TB has 11/38 sprockets. If you want more top end then run a 36t or 34t rear. The 34t may be to much loss of bottom end but a big gain in top. You can get sprockets from your polaris dealer or go to dennis kirk. Dennis kirk has tons of parts for every make and model. A good rear sprocket will cost about $30.

i dont know why everyone is makin this out to be so difficult... bump up 1 tooth in the front... and thats it... you can get a front sprocket for 11-20$... you dont need to change them all at the same time unless everything is VERY worn out...
