My sled is totally stock, except some clutching and gearing.
Kingcats didn't come with 10 tooth drivers stock. 8 tooth, 3.0 pitch. 19/43 gearing, is what came stock. 04's didn't have the anti-ratchets. The 05's did. Stock kingcat setup would be a good place to start. I prefer a lower gear. Some do, some don't. I can tell you I gained 10mph of track speed with clutches and gears alone. (Lower gear and more weight) I ride 3-6k feet though. I also use a j/s speed sensor, it takes the guesswork out of seeing gains or losses. The speedo's on sleds just are too hard to tell if you gained a few mph of track speed. I would pick somone you trust locally, and go with one persons advise. If you try to listen to all the peeps on here, you will be confused and your sled will run worse. Way too many variables for everyone, from anywhere to give good advise. Good luck! -00's
