I see it is common to use an early big red 250 primary gear reduction in a 450 foreman for a reduction for bigger tires. Has anyone used the 450 primary gear in a big red? If it is geared taller would it have more top end? I do a lot of road riding from farm to farm and if I had more speed that would be awesome.

Less bottom end grunt more top end speed

I understand the concept. I was wondering how much reduction in top end speed the foreman has with a big red gear reduction. That would give me an idea about how much top end I would gain in a big red with the foreman gear reduction.
