what elevation do you rideI running a 20 129 yeti on a 18 husky 490 and have been running a 14 tooth countershaft sprocket and stock on the belt drive. Curious what you guys have done with gearing that is best for the deep. Current setup runs good when it’s setup a little
5-6000what elevation do you ride
Run 14 counter sprocket and a 44 top belt gear, that's a finale 1.21 ratio ,This will make 1 st 32 MPH and the money climbing gear, On most kits 1st is useless , It will also give a full overdrive gear 50 mph down the trail allowing for all 5 gears useable. Its a better gearing than adding a 6th to gearbox. This is good up to 6500 feet . I set every bike here up this way and it rocks, for guys riding high elevations reach out to Tobe Till, He has suggestions for those elevations running far less HP at altitude .5-6000
Have you tried 39 on the top. Really just looking for a little extra pull in 2nd gear when it’s super deepRun 14 counter sprocket and a 44 top belt gear, that's a finale 1.21 ratio ,This will make 1 st 32 MPH and the money climbing gear, On most kits 1st is useless , It will also give a full overdrive gear 50 mph down the trail allowing for all 5 gears useable.

yes i have run all the combinationsHave you tried 39 on the top. Really just looking for a little extra pull in 2nd gear when it’s super deep
Do you have any you would sell? My local dealer said you can’t get a 44 anymoreyes i have run all the combinations
Im out however they are available we have them on over 20 yetis.Do you have any you would sell? My local dealer said you can’t get a 44 anymore
I like stock belt and stock 13 tooth counter. 9k elevation in video. pulls 2nd on every hill. 1st is an oh **** gear and very tight woods. and 5th still takes me over 50 mph.
you wont spin 11,500. Simply use the GPS MPH and get a realization of what ewer really running, on flat trail WOT.With 14 counter sprocket and a top 44 tooth it will only do 50 ish, the freeride has a 16 tooth jackshaft gear ,So ewers will not magically do the same with Much lower gearing.Doing the math I got 53.3343 mph at 11,500 rpm from final drive. on a 2021 ktm with a yeti kit.
Primary ratio 31:76 > 5th ratio 22:26 = .3451416 ktm countershaft rpm
kit ratio 13>16 > 41>47 = .70878 rpm
.24462946 Complete bike ratio
11500 x .24462946 = 2813.2388 rpms
2813.2388 x 20.02 inches (driver size) = 56321.041 inches per minute
56321.041/ inches in a mile 63360 = .888905 miles per minute
x60 to = per hour from minute. = 53.334 MPH
my bike revs to 11950 aswell. so
This gives me first gear of 31.51 mph. at 11500.

I don't care what ratio you run. 39 top gear and a 6th gear i will beat you to the top of the hill. PERIOD
