[QUOTE="ossagp, post: 219563, member: 1650"] On the older rigs, and especially the ones where the swingarm pivot was far from the counter shaft sprocket I tend to run the largest front sprocket that I can, and then go larger on the back to make up for that. the 4-1 ratio or there about is what I would end up with on a mx bike, but found you have more to play with in the case of a wide ratio trans like the DR's have. Usually the gear ratio you start with ends up feeling on the low side pretty soon if you are a new offroader. So you may want to wait to spend. [/QUOTE]
