Default Raptor 660 needs more low end!!

I am fairly new to this, so bare with me, please. I have installed a K&N filter and filter lid, and also a dyno jet kit, and it runs great..almost too great. I have killer top end, but not enough low end for trails and hill climbing. I have no problem losing some on the top if I can get a little more out of the lower. Does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks!

you want it to feel tourqy. throw a 12 tooth front sprocket and a 44tooth rear. Thats what i run and its mint with 22" tires with 20" tires the 12 was mint.

me and one fly replied at the same time..

stock gearing is 13/40...

throwing a 12 tooth front sproket on it makes it simialr to a

13/43 i belive

so if u put a 12 front and a 44 rear.. your looking at .."NO first gear lol" but thats where second comes in..

it wouldnt be no first but it owuld be similar to a 4x4 1st gear. in 4 wheel drive on low . lol

Yup. And I LOVE my gearing. If i wanna race i just second gear start. remember i have tallwer tires so im just a lil lower geard than 12/40 but its saweeet. when your rock crawling you can put it in first and crawl or second you can dam near come to a halt and and if ya gas it your off. mind you this is on my bone stock rappy besides gears and tires. maybe i go back to 13 in front after pipe and proflow and stuff but i doubt it. I dont have anyneed for top speed.

White Bros E series slip-on silencer add loads of low end but kills the top end.

I got rid of mine because of this, but you may like it.
