    I have an 09 WR250 and the stock gearing 13/48? I think. Anyone dropping a tooth in the front?

    Thinking it might help running the tight trails but wasn't sure if it would be too low.

    Did it for MX to help with getting drive off the doubles, suggest you try it at only $20 or so.

    I've been running 12/48 on my 08 WR250 since it was new. My bike might hit 50 MPH when wrapped out, but that's pushing it hard. Pretty much all i ride is tight, rocky single track so I rarely get out of 3rd gear anyway. I rode Taylor Park this past fall and it has tons of dirt roads between the good stuff and I was wishing I had a 6th gear after 30 miles of washboard. Brad.
