Ideal sprocket combinations for 06 klx 250 with a 351 kit in near future?
Just wondering what different set ups will give me what. I want the bike to be powerful out of the hole but to still be able to cruise on the high way. Tire size recommendations would also be nice.
Edit: Just checked my current set up as I bought the bike used and it has a 13 tooth front sprocket with a 42 tooth rear sprocket. I counted the teeth on the front sprocket and the rear sprocket had the number 42 on the side of it so I'm assuming that it means its a 42 tooth sprocket. That seems geared awfully low compared to everyone else's that I have seen on here. That means that my bike was customized to be quicker out of hole for trail riding and such right? Also checked current tire size and its a 110. I have no idea what I should change to get optimal performance.

IDRIDR is correct, stay close to or stock until you get the 351 and just see if you need more, you can then get what you need. I run 13/42 on an 09 and it's almost too low for as much road riding as I do.
