Did some sand training at Maraisburg and I find that riding in first is just to strong and jerky and second is to pap when I blip the throttle or when I need power. Will going down one tooth on the front sprocket give second gear a bit more power and help with this issue? When I changed sprocket sizes on my KTM200 it made a huge difference. I know this will take away top end speed, but I don't ride at high speeds anyway. What sizes for front and rear would you recommend?
