I Am Running In My Savage 25 Gears 18 And 49 Tooth Stock
I Wanna Pull Some Wheelies What Gears Do I Use 13 Clutch Bell And
What Sour Gear
Any Help Please Thanks
 
What About A 13/49 What Will That Do
 
13 will completely kill any top end you may have had. When I was running the stock S-25, I had a three shoe clutch, and 15/49 gearing, and it would wheelie like mad, and had decent top end. I now have a Ofna/Picco .26, and had to regear it to 18/49, the 15/49 would just flip it on its lid, and the top end was hurting. So I think 13 may be a bit too low. But you have nothing to lose by trying it out.
 
i had my savage 25 tuned by my LHS...and never got any wheelies out of it..actually i've fried 3 diffs already. The last one blew in 10mins. i saw a thread here somewhere on what OFNA shims to buy and everything else needed to take out the "SLOP" on the gear meshing. can anyone help ?

I did put in some hard foam in my stock tires...MAN!! what a difference. I've had people actually ask if i had 4 wheel steering. Because even at full speed my turn radius is SOO TIGHT it even looks like FWS to me. When i first noticed it i also thought some linkage was broken or something to make it turn so tight.My jato doesn't turn that tight
