Default 08' 450r

Can I get some input on gearing? Just bought this bike and have been riding an 05 400ex. I'm used to not having to be on the throttle so much when doing slower trails with tighter turns or foolin around on mounds or gullies and washouts. Most of the riding will be at the Oregon Dunes or forest trails. Love the bike awesome power difference from the 400!

you may have to ride the clutch some on the trails cant lug them down like the 400 but on the dunes that will be a blast on the 450.

Even changing the gearing still will not let you lug the motor like a 400

Put a recluse pro clutch set up in it makes it like a automatic clutch.
