What sproket ratio are you running

[CrisMember]

Ok well just asking what sprocket ratios people are running.

I’ve just put 13 on the front and 50 on the rear.

It had a 50 on the rear when I got it but cant remember if it was a 13 or 14 on the front.

I did change the rear to a 46 and at one time there was a 14 on the front, not sure if I put it on or it was already on it.

So what do we have running around out there?????

No idea Boze, only done 110 hrs on it since I got it, think I adjusted it once or twice but never looked. The old girl rocks along so it sort of in the I don’t really care catergory.

Running 14-51 on the 450x,smoothed the power delivery out and a bit more top end.

Thats music to my ears , the 450x I just bought had an arm wrenching 13-53 to do the Mexican Rip to the Tip ride but tonight I fitted 14-51 in the hope to make it a bit more singles friendly !!!

I’m also running 14-51 on the 250x which is spot on

You need to compare same for same Boze eg: KTM 300 for KTM 300

Bikes have different gear ratios internally that differ and create a different counter shaft final drive ratio
Just cause a 14/48 works on a XR 400 it will be all out of sorts on a KTM 400 more than likely

KTM 450 SX
Was 14-52
Now 14-50
Doesn’t seem as hell bent on spitting me off the back of the dam thing now

Beat me to it TB. Stock on a DRZ250 is 14/42 and I’m running 14/46. Means nothing to anyone except another DRZ250 rider.

[CrisMember]

Yeh point taken TB.
But so far we got 14-50, 52. Mostly Honda.

After the quick lap around the paddock and up the road I’m thinking I should have put a 14 on the front. But we will see how the bike handles it on Sunday. I know the front wheel is going to get more air time :woohoo: I’ll just see if I can control the throttle (think with brain not right hand).

Oh its on an 08 KTM 530

Thanks guys

Hey boze
I run 15-52 on my 530. Still gets me up murphs basin runs but gives me a decent transport speed

[alanMember]

hay boze i found 14 50 okay but favoured 14 52 on my last bike 08 530 be interesting how 13 50 will go

[David FallonMember]

Husaberg FE570 running 13 – 52

Mmm that sounds high. But ok.

I was happy with the 13-46 I had. I can remember putting the 46 on to tame it as the front did lift a bit and to run over to Gunnedah (80km). Just trail riding it a lot now & looking for happy medium.

Thanks

Well I’m thinking if I’m playing sweep they better be ready.

[JoeMember]

15-52 is about the same as a 14-49 give or take a bit. Gives about 157 top out so will cruise at 110-120

Ok so what you think 13-50 will be like then. Top out 120 cruise 80
