RE: 15 wide top gear with 13 wide bottom gear??
Hey guys, i was told to use 15 wide chain and top gear but i can use a lighter smaller 13 wide bottom gear, for better performance ( lighter weight and less rotaing mass), Heard the bottom gear can actually twist a little and not screw up the chain by binding it where it's a little more forgiving as ist's smaller gear on the wider chain, and no damage to the chaincase will result. He also told me arctic cats (bad word here I know) do this from stock on some sleds, can anyone confirm this will work???
