mcman56 Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 I'm not sure if it is the same gearing, but I went from an 11 tooth to a 10 on a 2016 300 4t. I think it made slow tight turns with clutch slipping easier. It was also less abrupt when letting out the clutch. The bike picks up less speed when going over a series of obstacles close together. I tried a 9 tooth and it made tight turns even easier but killed some of the snap used to get over obstacles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moto Migrant Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 I did this on my 300 4t, it main a noticeable difference it really tight sections and improved how the bike worked at slow speeds, If I need more power or torque there is 2nd gear (also more useable now) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjw123 Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 I've had a few 300 4t s. Always dropped to a 9 on the front & left the rear as standard (43 ??). Lots more manageable in bottom, & 2nd can be used more frequently. Worth a try, as cheap to do. Also, less likely for an infamous 4 stroke cough, as usually there are a few more revs on .

reggie Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 I have had several of the Beta 4t trials motorcycles and have found the stock gearing to be the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
