New spur geer

[bubbadee5]

Okay I recently broke my clutch and am thinking about getting a better spur gear then the stock 2.5 and was wondering what tooth amount I should get.

Wait I think I mean the clutch bell. Sorry. They one attached to the engine.

If your looking for more torque and less top speed, get a bell with less teeth.
More top speed and less torque, more teeth.

The engine you are running will play a factor on how many teeth you can add and not be geared too tall for the engine output.

Well I recently upgraded my 2.5 to a new 2.5r and wondering what would be good for some wheelies?

18T clutch bell, 72T spur gear.

what Snook said ! that's what i run on my Maxx and it's a wheelie beast !

Do I have to upgrade the spur also and what are the stock clutch and spur by the way.

 

[Snook Man]

20/70 is stock for the 2.5. with a 18T bell either the 70t or 72t spur should have you popping wheelies with a decent tune.

Okay thanks. Could I go to 17t and 72t or is that to much

 

[Snook Man]

17T is pretty low, very torque and much less top speed, but it will work. Keep in mind that you loose appox 2.5 mph from top speed per 1 less tooth on the clutch bell.

Okay 18t it is. And I guess when I order I'll pick up a 72t spur gear because it is only $4.
