If you are running a stock 14t now, by switching to a 13t you will lose about 5-7 mph on top end. But you will notice a nice bottom end hit that the Banshee lacks with the stock gearing. You will be alot quicker off the line and I bet you never even notice the top end overall speed lost. That is the cheapest mod you can do to gain lower end power from your shee.

I don't think you will lose 5-7 MPH. You will definately lose some top end, but I would say probably not much more than 3 MPH.

I agree with raptor660... i think you will only lose around 3-4 mph with one tooth less on your counter sprocket upgrade... it's only one tooth less... shouldn't hurt it that much i wouldn't think... but again... i could be wrong... but, at least you have a great quad that i would die to own for myself... as of right now... i have a 86' 250r and a 96' blaster... but i would gladly respect a banshee even before my 250r... just my 2 cents.
