For those of you who have Warriors (or anything for that matter), what tire size and gear ratios are you running, and what type of terrain do you ride?? I bought my Warrior with 20x11x9 Razrs and 12 tooth front and 40 tooth rear. I'm not sure why the pervious owner geared it so low, it did have a rack on it when I bought it, so it was prob. used as a utility quad. While it pulls hard, it winds out to fast, so I bought a 14 tooth front, I haven't gotten it yet, but I hope that will give me some more top speed. Tell me whats working for you guys. BTW, I ride a lot of trails, some fields, some track riding, I hope the 14 tooth won't take away too much bottom end, but will give me the spped I need on the dirt roads and fields. Thanks!!

On my old Warrior i ran 20's in the back. I found the 14 tooth is almost close to the stock gearing with 23" stock tires. You will have plenty of bottom end as well as an almost stock top end. I figure i was running 1-3 mph slower than stock tires and gearing with the 14 tooth.

Hey man i got 20-11-9's on the rear of my Warrior.
I also noticed the difference in the gearing.
I put the 14 tooth on and walah!It seems to put it back to original gearing.I think it runs like what-56mph stock?I have a pipe and filter and jet kit in mine and have the smaller tires and i was riding next to my g/f in the truck at 58mph.I know its not that accurate but just to give you an idea.I also ride in many different types of terrain and it works great for all types.
Hope i helped.
Glad to helpa fellow Warrior!
