Bike year: 2002
model: EC250
mods: FMF Gnarly and TCII, Aktive reeds, LTR jetting and powervalve cover.
Gearing: 13:48 and 13:50
Top speed: 81 on GPS and 76 on GPS
what kind of ridding do you do: Long sandy hills, tight muddy areas, but no rocks, and lots of fire roads.

Result: With 13:50 its a stump puller, and still has better top speed than most the Jap 250s I ride with.
The 13:48 has lots of top speed and a nice 2nd gear for most the trails I do and keeps me from going into 4th gear. !st is a little tall but it still works as a scapgoat.

Default Gearing Database

I will sticky it and modify the title. This will serve as the gearing database (like the jetting database).

--------------------------------------------
Bike year: 2007
model: EC250
mods: LTR powervalve cover, LTR jet kit, FMF Gnarly pipe & Turbine core II spark arrestor/silencer, top secret blend of premix
Gearing: 13T/50T and 13T/52T
Top speed: Too fast, too quick... I don't care for top speed since I ride singletrack. On doubletrack connector trails, I guess the top speed is around 60 mph but never cared to look.
What kind of ridding do you do: Singletrack trails with a variety of conditions. Michigan trails are lots of sand with some rock and firm soil. No clay. Typical tires are Michelin S12 or Maxxis SI.

Result: 13T/50T was what my bike had from the previous owner. It worked well, but I found myself mis-shifting to neutral on technical singletrack (hill climbs, tight trees, etc.). I switched to 13T/52T to give me more acceleration and low end torque. Now, I use 2nd & 3rd gear more for singletrack and avoid going to 1st gear (unless absolutely necessary).

Bike year: 2003
Model: EC200
Mods: LTR Powervalve Cover
Gearing: 13:52
Top speed: Its around 90 - 100 km/h
What kind of ridding do you do: Varying from 4X4 roads to tight snotty singletrack. We ride all year round, lots of dust in summer, real slippery mud/clay in winter. Rocks thrown in all round just for kicks.

Result: Its pretty good, hit most hills in second gear, kick it down to first if its real bad. Most tracks don't require first gear at all, only use it as said before for insane hillclimbs (usually don't get up them anyway hahaha). Sometimes would like more poke on the fire roads but that is the trade off with a small bore two stroke I reckon

Bike year: 2004
Model: 450 FSE
Mods: .
Gearing: 13:46or 52 For Enduro 13: 36 or38 for Supermoto
Top speed: Its around 95 mph .150 km/h with either gearset.

For mods... working on adapting my DRZ aftermarket Titanium pipe and muffler set up to my GG. The DRZ pipes weigh less and are about 50% larger than the GG pipes.

Result:13-46 to 13-52 for desert . . The 13- 36 works wonders for street or highway use.
With the 13-36 setup can cruise at 80mph without really revving up the motor. Minimum 6th gear speed 60mph.

Bike year:2009
model:EC250 SixDays
mods:CRD bash plate, Rekluse clutch, KTM hand guards, Raptor Titanium foot pegs, Kriega pull straps f&R!!
Gearing:13:48, will change to 13:52 as I rarely top out in sixth & droping 2nd & 3rd would be more beneficial for the type of riding I do.
Top speed:100kph ish.
what kind of ridding do you do:Irish Enduro, see: wet & muddy with lots of ruts & roots.

Result:Fine bike, front suspension was very tiring until it was set up for me by Chris Hockey AKA: Dr. Shox.

Bike year: 2007
model: EC250
mods: LTR PV cover
Gearing: 13:52
Top speed: 76 on an ICO, not sure on GPS

what kind of riding do you do: technical trails, several enduros a year, occasional hare scrambles

Result: I need the bike to climb very steep rock hills and it does this well. Also, when racing in tight but less technical terrain, it allows me to avoid making the more awkward shift to and from first gear. Essentially, first gear is a bailout. Top speed is a non-issue.
