250's gear ratios?

I guess they gear them to match the racing conditions over in Europe.
If someone stateside would make a gearset to match the KTM ratios they would sell a bunch.

Do you think I'll be able to do 10 miles on the highway @ 60mph on a 2010 TE250 with a 49t rear sprocket?......without blowing it up?

I wouldn't run my 2008 TE250 at that speed unless I had 15-48 gearing but I am extra conservative.

One thing that might help here is to don't hold the motor at an even RPM ... try to open it, close it ... speed up a little, slow down ETC as you ride ... sort of 2-stroke it here Maybe hit the ditch from time to time if possible

What about the teeth # on the front sprocket?

Maybe when it breaks in I'll try it.

I have a 10mile piece of mega Turnpike I've got to run to get to a local track.

I guess I can put 55 in the right lane and hope not to get run over!
