if i am not mistaken i saw that you run a polaris? if so you are going to really need to gear that bike tall. I ran 15/31 and after about 400' it was topped out all the way. You will probably need to change your clutching, but I haven't had much time to experiment with it. Since the bike doesn't turn high rpms off the line just about any tire will stick. Defenitely try to find some tall tires and gear it tall. my 60' times were upper 1.4 and low 1.5, but ran out of gear after about 400'.

i figured id go with a 14/28 or 15/30 gearing. Should the clutch stall be at higher or lower rpms? Its at 5200 or 6200 rpms right now. Whats better, American Racers or Hoosiers?
I would like to run them on the stock rims since we arent using them right now.

I RUN 4.83 IN 300' DIRT DRAGS AND MY CLUTCHING STILL ISN'T RIGHT. RACE MOD ENGINE ON ALKY THAT WEIGHS ABOUT 400LBS MINUS THE RIDER. I TURN CONSISTANT 1.5'S IN 60' ON ASPHALT WITH STOCK TIRES AND NO WHEELIE BAR. ONLY THING IS I RUN COMPLETELY OUT OF GEAR SOON AFTER THE 330' MARK AND IT LEVELS OFF.

I WOULD SAY GO WITH EITHER THE GEAR RATIO SHOULD BE PRETTY MUCH THE SAME. MY STALL IS AT 3500....WOULD LIKE TO INCREASE IT TO AROUND4000-4500. MY BIKE SITS ABOUT 2" OFF THE GROUND RIGID MOUNT AND I STILL HAVE A HARD TIME KEEPING THE FRONT END DOWN...HOPE YOU HAVE A WHEELY BAR.
