When you say top speed decreaded slightly, How much? And with the 121" track, how will it hook up from a dead start with that much track spin? Thank you...BBY

Was approx. 2.6 mph slower, however that difference can change due to conditions from day to day. For speed reference that day 22/38 was close to full shift.

As we know snow conditions will effect track hook up, so the lower ratio will benefit from snow conditions providing better traction. Major focus was for quicker corner to corner acceleration and quicker acceleration off bumps, preloading jumps, ect. Not continuous dead start riding.

If continuous dead start (0-wot) riding is a majority of the type of usage, someone is probably going to want to look into additional traction.

Thank you, Also, did they test with a 23 top or 40 bottom, essentially 1 tooth lower than the 06s, and if so, what were the resluts. Thanks again...BBY

Top speed on a 23 fell between a 22 and a 24
