    CRF 70F Awful gear ratio

    by ramon » Mon Jan 30, 2006 11:59 am

    I've read about a Takegawa Close ratio gear set that gets rid of the awful jump from 1st to 2nd on the CRF70F. Has anyone tried this fix? Is it a real pain? Does it work? I'm a little concerned that all it really does is make 1st closer to second and not the other way around.
    Will I lose off-the-line torque?
    Also, is the slight bog off the line in the throttle response a normal thing? My son and I are new to these new Hondas and could use some advice.

    We just picked up an 06 70 for my son and I hated the really tall 2nd gear too. My son has adapted and learned to really wind 1st before he hits 2nd and it is working well for him at the track.....so far.
