Bike year:2000
model:ec200
mods: pv cover, jet kit, 8oz fww, doma pipe,tc2 silencer
Gearing:13/52
Top speed:68ish on gps. i'm rarely above 30.
what kind of ridding do you do:tight woods, hare scrambles, enduros

Result:works well for my purposes. suspension is the best. i'm in 2nd and 3rd most of the time. no need for top speed - i'm usually in 6th for under 5 minutes total in a 2hr race. i do 30+ tight rocky/rooty single track harescrambles a year and need this gearing primarily for hill climbing..and to get killer starts.. i am now regularly top 3 into the woods! if i could just get the other hour and 59 minutes figured out i'd be a contender

Bike Year:1999
Model:EC 200
Mods: Jet Kit, Head Squish, Mecciso Pipe, just a tad taken out of the head pipe w/ FMF S/A T.C II, Boysen Carbon Power Reeds. Swapped out the 45mm Zokes for 43 WP's
Gearing:13/52
Top speed:60+

What kind of ridding do you do:tight woods, hare scrambles, enduros

Result:Motor/suspension is awesome for tight stuff...Runs like a 200 on steroids. I have tried 13/51, went back to 13/52 for second, thrid and fourth gear for grunt work! Got'ta love that six speed

Bike Year:2005
Model:300 DE
Mods: RB carb and head mod, G2 throttle cam, suspension by Trailtricks
Gearing:13/47 for desert, switching to 13/49 for enduro

What kind of riding do you do?:tight woods, hare scrambles, enduros

Result:13/47 is a little tall but works fine unless moving very slow, 13/49 provides more of a "granny" gear. My suspension is excellent for all speeds but optimized for a faster pace.

Bike year: 2011
model: EC250E
mods: carb tuning only
Gearing: 13:48 (standard)
Top speed: ~140 as i've seen
what kind of ridding do you do: mostly tight, rocks, woods. in the winter dunes and open desert

Result: pretty good, may try 13:50- for the rocks. carb jetting with 'rain' map provides good response and nice boost in low RPM

Year : 2004
De converted ec300
Gearing: 13/50
Top speed: never tested assuming 50ish
Riding: single track, xc racing, tough terrain, big hillclimb
Mods: powervalve cover, fmf fatty/ turbinecore2, 2k3 ignition and all chassis armor and goodies

My gearing setup is about as perfect as it can get for a novice intermediate rider. It tracts awesome everywhere even with a bald tire and can lug it super low my only reason to change would be to go down to a 48 to try to see if i could ride the bike more aggressively but the bottom end the bike has now is just incredible almost like a trials bike!

Bike year: 2006
model: DE/EC 200
Jetting: 178/42. NEsomething? the suzuki needle at #3. 5 slide ground to a 6
mods: LTR PV cover, cleaned up ports on cylinder, psr-21 reeds, fmf gnarly, Q stealth
Gearing: 12/48 with renthal non o-ring chain
Top speed: faster than 60? not a big deal to me
what kind of ridding do you do:tight woods, single track, stop and start because of losing the trail

Result: the 12 tooth front sprocket has shown signs of bending teeth way before the rear sprocket or chain wearing out, will go for a 13/51 or 52 when I change sprockets and chain

Bike year: 2008
model: EC250
mods: Gnarly pipe
Gearing: 13/51
Top speed:..I've got a GSXR for top speed!
what kind of ridding do you do: enduro, woods stuff, gentle trail.

Result: seems fine to me, good low granny trials gear, top is high enough, she came with 13-47 which would of been great for motorway or pizza delivery work!

I did once have a EC-200 that came with a 13/45 on it....must of been a good story there?

[robszombie]

Bike year: 2012.
model: EC250-e.
mods: Rad braces.
Gearing: 13/52.
Top speed: ???
what kind of ridding do you do: Woods, slow stuff mainly.

Question: with the current gearing the chain has eaten through the chain guide, will a TM designs (they say up to 3t extra) fit it &/or do I need to revert back to a 50 & possibly fit a 12t on the front for the same effect?
