03-04 Monster Gearing

Heres the thing......

I've been looking into gearing this week and found that Renthal don't make a rear sprocket over 46 teeth for this model, which to me means that anyone running a 03-04 620ie is going to have very limited gearing options if they want to sacrifice top end for acceleration.

Standard
15/48 - 3.20

Options
14/45 - 3.21 (almost same as stock)
14/46 - 3.29 (slight improvement)
14/48 - 3.43 (best your gonna get using the stock rear and a new 14t front)

Dropping below 14 on the front isn't really an option (?)

I would expect everyone to drop the gearing at our first outing (Cadwell Woodland) so are the new Monster boys already at a disadvantage??

Unless any other manufacturer are making bigger than 48 tooth rears for the newer bikes.
