What about the guys like me who want to cruise long distance high mile days but can't do it on a stock xtx with its low gearing. 40-45mph 7,000 / 50-55 mph 8000 rpm
Is it common for anyone to replace the 23 top with a 24? From a 1.61 to 1.55 doesn't sound like much, or is it?
1) Will motor have enough mustard pull the extra tooth? Will it be a roach?
2) Can I expect cruise speed to increase 5mph?
3) Will I need to lighten the weights back to stock which is 3.6 heel, 4.5 middle, 3.1 tip ? 10,800
4) I Want to invest in some easy t0 adjust weights. Heavy hitters? Dalton? Super tips? Dragon Fly's?
current Scenario:
1.35 Ice attack (1.75 removed)
8 tooth drivers (stock was 7 tooth)
stock clutch springs and helix but heel and tip are now 4.5 (4.6 heel, 4.5 middle [stock] 4.5 tip) 10,500rpm
stock gears 23/37
1.61 ratio confirmed.

Id lie to think there must be a recipe floating around out there that's been tried in order to achieve said goal.
Thanks in advance
