Re: best gearing for my strokah..
What tires are you running going that speed. Too long on a wrong rates tire can be trouble. Get a pic of that bad boy doing 90 on the speedo. I'm planning on running 6.8s on my w/c 121cc. I run Pirelli diablos on my 91 mph Zx. But those are 12" wheels and I need a killer set of 10s for the elite.

Re: best gearing for my strokah..
I have some 6.3:1 gears that would be perfect for your goal.JAC3 wrote:Bump anyone ?..
Any gears over 7.5:1 will be to short to go 90mph
Is that the big PG for strokers?

Re: best gearing for my strokah..
