DB30 Gear Setup

i just upgraded from the original 2.5 hp motor to the harbor freight 6.5 honda clone engine. the clutch is a 12t and the rear sprocket is a 70t. it has a nice acceleration and an ok top speed. but i want more power haha so what are you guys running for optimum power?

You should Use the search button at the top in red ,, there is a lot of info on the 6.5 clone , Mods , Carbs , Pipes ,, welcome to the board and lets see pics of your bike

At mfgsupply.com I saw some different 35# sprockets ranging from 60 to 72 teeth, with a cost of $12-15. Reducing the number of teeth should give you a higher top end, and increasing them better low end. The question is do you want better pulling power (quicker starts), or higher top end?

What type of performance are you looking for? For $30, you could try both!

I even found an 80 tooth sprocket at TEwarehouse.com, so if you are a big boy (200lbs +), it shold get you moving.

if you want to change the sprocket you have to get a blank and drill it yourself. no one makes sprockets for the DB30.
