[QUOTE="dirt bike dave, post: 170231, member: 18302"] Close ratio tranny, running 13/49 gears (stock is 13/50) w/ an 18" rear hoop. Top speed is about 58-60 mph. The 1 tooth smaller rear sprocket does raise first gear up a little, but also gives a little wider gap up to second - sometimes it's nice to spread 1st and 2nd out a bit. First gear is a bit tall and extreme trails can require some clutch abuse if you stall at the base of an obstacle, but the bike will make it through or over just about anything. IMO, this '99 has better low end than most, so it can tolerate the high first gear. In the woods w/occasional fire roads, my top speed is usually around 45 mph on a 55-70 mile loop. If you were dual sporting or riding in an area where higher top speeds were needed, the WR would be nice, but it's certainly not necessary for woods riding. [/QUOTE]
