Default 13 tooth vs 14 tooth

Went to a 13 tooth front sprocket a few monts ago.
I loved what it did for the bike in the tight hilly sections but i seem to be doing more high speed gravel road sections and some mild trail riding latley.
The engine revs to high at 100kph 6700rpm

does anyone have any ideas for the best gearing?
I know you can't have it both ways but was interested to hear from any one who does that type of riding and has a decent gearing selection.


Cheers

Most people say best gearing is 13-45, stock is 14-42

i prefer the high revs - better power

I'm going to a 14-46 tomorrow will let you know how that works. Don't want to lose much on the top
but need to pull up easier.

I just put the Moose 13T on last night went on easy didn’t have to mod anything for it. I went ahead and took the snorkel off of the bike to see if it would run even a little faster but with stock exhaust it just bogged down till I hit about 6k rpm then the bike would take off from under you.
