Going back to 24/50 gears

Were you been all winter Ernie? I heard you bought a 850 Doo, is that rumor or true?

Guilty as charged lol lots of fun on the junk trails we have down here.

So after reading all these post for a week I currently have 22/41 with a 35/39 helix, So that being said what would the 24/50 set up do for me with this helix . How much top end loss is the compared to what I have now and I actually think stock gearing was better than this but never tried it with this helix.

24/50 is the best combo honestly. I have those gears with a 1,75 track and the hook up is insane corner to corner. I got on my buddy's with a 1.25 and it just spins every where. Both of us are tuned at 260hp. You need a bigger track to put the power to the snow.

Did u have to do any type of modification with the chain tensioner when putting in the 24/50 gears ?

 

[NYTurbo]

No

 

[Carpet Guy]

No

Thanks I am going to try this set up I asked because the tensioner was pretty snug but I figured it out lol I hope I will like the set up I did have 22/41 but didn't see much difference between stock but I did the math on the ratio and this is quite different,

If you get rid of that helix let me know
I have a pile of 24 50s on the bench

I noticed yamaha has a 49t lower in there optional gearing. I assume you run the 24t upper and 92p chain with that?

I don't think a 24/49 Is a good combo as far as chain fitment

Makes me wonder what they expect to use the 49t for. I know I’ve got 1.5” of thread left on the adjuster with 24/50

It will probably work but a huge dog leg

 

[hellflyer]

Ya! That’s my worry

Meaning slow on top ?

Might hit post? Tensioner bolt will be in all the way. Huge dog leg.
