Wait what?, I had a 44tooth on there and the hoot gear box ground down 5 or so of my clutches, and then I Bought A 4g gear box 100t and then it slipped like crazy, then I was reommnded to someone els, and a bought a 56t sprocket..

And I thought bigger is lower rpms, and smaller is higher. I think you got it backwards.

A bigger rear sprocket lowers your speed
so that would raise your rpm's
A smaller rear sprocket lowers your rpm's

Terry Blow just blew up his 4 Stroke at 33 mph at 9800 rpm [ 5 to 1 4G 11 to 49 tooth sprockets 26.5" rear wheel
Redline is 7800 rpm

Your gearing with a 5 to 1 4G 11 to 56 tooth sprocket is ONLY
24.2 mph at 7800 rpm
30.4 mph at 9800 rpm

Just a little info about my HS 49cc 4G 5:1 with 11t freewheel to a 44t rear sprocket. I've got close to 4,000mi. on it, it goes 35mph on a good day and is still on the original clutch. All that has broken on it so far is 1 belt, 1 clutch bell and the oil slinger.....oh and an 11t freewheel. That's it. I ride this bike hard and it still runs strong. All I do is change the oil every 15-25 hrs. put gas in and ride the snot out of it. My repairs amount to $25 my cost and the bike weighs 74 lbs. and I'm tipping the scales at 180 lbs. Any questions?
