J-Madd Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 If your running a 20" tire your gonna need 19/38 or so if the tires grow at the other end. If they don't, you may need a 20 on the front.. I've never ran the 8th, but you'll need to be geared to run 100+ mph, and that motor should pull it. 16/41 and you'll be out of gear at 1/2 track. http://home.earthlink.net/~gellett/banshee.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
