I'm debating on gearing options on my 86 R, with my 20" Razr's.
Right now, I have 14/36 gearing used with my 18" Trekkers for ice-racing.
I'm running a 38mm PWK with an open K&N, CR cage with Aktive reeds,, an ESR pipe, and stock .020" over engine with mild cleanup porting. I'm thinking of dropping to a 13 tooth front, which will give me 13/36 gearing. I'm thinking this will be an okay all around setup.
What do you all think, and what are you using for what type of riding?

Unless you need the extra speed, the stock gearing is hard to beat. I've always wanted to try 13/37 but I didn't want to loose the lower gearing for the woods.

I always used 14/39 for the woods and 20" tires. I now use 14/36, but thats with 18" tires and mx.

I'm running 14/39 and my tires are like 19's... I'm running some 20's but on a 10" wide wheel they stretch out
