Ok. So. 14x50 tooth set up. Yup. Its the bomb. If you're riding mostly off-road this is where the magic is happening. First gear becomes a real life first gear. Second gear becomes extremely useful in slow uphill switch backs. It also makes lifting the front much easier. 3rd gear is now much more usable and sounds much better. You're a little higher in the Rev rage but that's where this motor wants to be but it's hard to ride that fast. Yes sixth is going to be a little less useful on the high way. I also haven't hit any highway with it, but 70 mph offroad and i think i was still below 6 grand. I think. Anyway. On the asphalt i can slide the rear on tight first gear turns and if it's dusty it will burn the rear in second in a straight line with a clutch dump. (I've got vee rubber 401 knoobies on the bike calm down.) A neat little fun fact. The motorcycle gearing calculator website also says for chain longevity the 14x50 is optimal for not landing on the same tooth with the same chain link. High five for that. Would i do it again. Yes.
