    My 86 400,

    Always the Holeshot!

    And I was running 15 tooth front sprocket, 48 tooth rear.

    For trail riding long distances, I always ran a 15 tooth front sprocket,

    82 WR250
    95 WR360
    01 TE570

    With the 14 tooth front sprocket, it just seemed like I had to work the gearbox too much.
    Much more relaxing with the 15 tooth front.

    :)

    My sons 125cr had a Japanese rear tire with bigger knobbies. The tire would chuck hardball sized rocks with ease. You wouldn't follow him for too long. I got clocked by one rock and learned quickly.

    The one tooth smaller front sprocket raises the tranny up more towards 3-4-5 gears rather 1-2-3. I noticed the 390 didn't like the one tooth smaller sprocket. Big bores have torque over the smaller bores with the higher rpm.
