Stock gearing according to Suzi parts is 13-42.

14- 42 would give you more on top.

Thanks. I have 22" Fast Trekkers on the rear, think if i went to a 13 on the front instead of a 14 tooth sprocket it would slow it down quite a bit? I know it will give it a better holeshot (like it needs it), but I wanna be able to trail ride some, like some old surface mine roads.

Any info would be appreciated [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

i would think about getting onto some 20s 22s are gona be jacking your ride a bit and raising your center of gravity, if you want to keep a high profile side wall think about dropping to a 9" rim

13/42 works pretty well... the 14/42 will allow for higher speed on top. Depending on your mods and conditions, it might not pull quite as hard. The 13 won't slow you down that much.... the rush is fun! Buy the 13, that way you can change for the conditions...

I run the 22" fast trekkers as well... great tire and cheap too! Don't worry about hight center of gravity... they work great for a little extra ground clearance (I was always hitting on rocks/stumps,etc.)

My $.02
