I have a question, if i go to a 34 tooth rear sprocket and keep the stock front sprocket wouldnt that make the motor wind up faster being as the rear sprocket is now smaller? If that is the case would that affect top speed or off idle mid range. My best guess is that it would be a rocket out of the hole, but run out of top end, i dont know someone please help me out.

Smaller rear sprocket = more top speed, less low end but this quad has low end to spare. Especially with a PC3 intalled.
