Title: wr 300 gearing Post by: Ebay on December 13, 2013, 07,25:39 AM Hi all, while rebuilding the 300 i noticed the sprocket and chain are nackered. Heres a question for the guys that own these bikes, what gearing do you run?
Cheers, ian Title: Re: wr 300 gearing Post by: Tim Dykes on December 13, 2013, 09,25:34 AM Find out what the standard gearing is for it and go from there. I try to add a tooth to the front sprocket, the sprocket and chain will last better, you will have to add a few teeth to the rear sprocket to compensate. Tight stuff, stay with the standard ratio. General trail riding, drop two teeth off the rear. High Country, maybe take another tooth or two off the rear. Desert, as big as you can on the front and 5+ off the rear.

I think you would be better off working out at what speed Jeff's Kato tops out? The go for a gearing set up a little taller than that, in case you forget to put the bins out? Al ;D Title: Re: wr 300 gearing Post by: Ebay on December 13, 2013, 10,40:59 PM What do you mean al, it already goes faster than the kato ;) ;)
I think ill try gary's gearing and see how that goes Title: Re: wr 300 gearing Post by: Alwr on December 14, 2013, 12,13:36 AM Then your set.
Gaz's gearing is good all round set up. Ridden it a couple times and a couple places. ;D Title: Re: wr 300 gearing Post by: Ebay on December 14, 2013, 07,45:10 AM Turns out the power valve wa really stiff so we lubed it up and hopefully thay helps :)
