My rear tire cost me about $100 installed.

michelin cross comp is a great tire and i would proly get a sprocket with a few more teeth for that kind of ridin.

tigmaster · 06-13-2007, 12:16 PM

thats a bit pricey for me.

wr250f95 · 06-13-2007, 12:30 PM

it already goes fast enough, i might be able to use a little more low end though

tigmaster · 06-13-2007, 01:17 PM

it depends if u are doing track riding or desert riding. on the track, low end is the most important, when are u gonna even go 70 on the track?

DirtriDER · 06-13-2007, 06:11 PM

what about steep hills on trails that sucks when you bog out

DirtriDER · 06-13-2007, 06:12 PM

and that is what a bigger back sproket does it gives you a little less speed and more umph

thats what i want, to take some of the top speed and make it into low end power.

tigmaster · 06-14-2007, 06:00 PM

if u really want to drop the speed a hefty amount and not drop a hefty wad of cash knock of 2 teeth on the front sprocket. fronts are a lot cheaper than rears and make much more of a drastic diff.

wr250f95 · 06-14-2007, 07:25 PM

i dont want drastic, just a little maybe one tooth off the rear?
