yea the 39 tooth made much more of a difference than i expected. never even got it into 5th gear the whole pismo trip and i honestly didnt feel like i lost any bottom end, but im thinking cuz i would slam through them so quick i was never really getting any good use outta em before. now i can wring each gear out. on the straight aways on the whoops i would hit 4th tapped and keep up with my buddies kx450f dirtbike. was pretty impressed.

and i know, like i said, i was ashamed. im such a bad example lol

No big deal the missing teeth just turn it into a limited slip differential
