What are your goals with the sled?

Who lead you to purchase bikemans set up in the first place? You need to have some clutch knowledge on how to tune your clutch system.

The gearing is a good match for your track, if you want to lower the gear ratio. Some people like it, some don't. The 2012 sleds come geared lower than that now. Most people have never run gearing this low so it will be interesting to see how people rank the new sleds.

i went with bikeman cause a guy i deal with gets most of his stuff from him and they just take down all the performance parts that you have added to your sled and gearing and track and what type of riding you do and they build one from there so hopefully they know what they are doing put i am sure there is still going to be lots of tuning needed whats its all on
