Larger pinion (directly on motor) yes, but at lower torque (power/force)

If its not connects directly to motor than it slows the rest of the series. Connected to motor (drive) it will spin at a set rate. The more teeth/larger circumference the more transferable energy. If the first is large, and the second is small, it will turn the smaller one many many more times per one revolution of the motor turn. Example, if motor gear has 100 teeth, and the second has 10 teeth. For every one motor rev, the secondary will have to turn 10 times creating speed. Hope this helps. I have a decade of rc and robotics experience, what are you trying to do?

No, a larger sprocket will decrease speed but increase torque. It will make it easier to pedal but result in a slower speed due to the reduced gear ratio.

How do you increase the speed of a motorcycle?

You can change the chain sprockets of most motorcycles to get a higher top speed. Reduce the rear sprocket numerically, and/or increase the front sprocket numerically. A higher profile tire will also increase top speed slightly.


Do you need to get a larger sprocket to slow down a conveyor?

Yes, increasing the size of the sprocket will slow down the conveyor since the larger sprocket will require more time to complete a full revolution compared to a smaller sprocket. This change affects the speed at which the conveyor belt moves.


How fast is the top speed of a 2013 Honda trx250x ATV?

This vehicle will go 45 to 49 mph maximum in its original condition. If you want to increase the speed, change the sprocket ratio. Get a smaller rear sprocket, minus four teeth, and a bigger front sprocket of plus two teeth, then get a larger carburetor and you will gain perhaps five to ten miles per hour. But be careful when ridin in rough terrain at high speed.


Does a smaller sprocket make a pocketbike go faster?

yes and a smaller sprocket will give you a faster start up and larger sprocket will give you a higher top speed as long as your taking about the back sprocket other wise its flipped around.


Does a bigger sprocket give higher top speed?

A bigger front sprocket gives a higher top speed. A bigger rear sprocket gives a lower top speed. A bigger front sprocket is less torque more top speed, and a bigger rear sprocket is more torque less top speed.


What is the top speed on a Honda 230l?

stock 70mph. Put a larger 14 tooth sprocket on the front and you can re gear it to it 80mph.


What is the top speed of Honda 400ex with aftermarket rear sprocket?

depends if the sprocket is bigger or smaller than a stock sprocket.


If you can change pulley sizes to increase speed which way do you go?

Think about your ten speed bicycle. The bike is in the lowest gear when the front sprocket is on the smallest diameter and the rear is on the largest. On the contrary, when the bike is at high speed, the rear is on the small diameter sprocket and the front is on the large diameter sprocket. Therefore, increasing the drive pulley size will increase the driven pulley speed (assuming the drive pulley stays at the same RPM). Similarly, increasing the driven pulley size will result in a slower speed (again, assuming the drive pulley stays at the same RPM).


Will a bigger sprocket on the front give you more acceleration?

The key to better acceleration or higher top speed is ratios, but if you change to a smaller sprocket at both ends the changes will cancel each other out and leave you pretty much where you started. If you want faster acceleration go for a smaller front or for a bigger rear.


What is the best sprocket combination of xrm 125?

Well, honey, the best sprocket combination for an XRM 125 really depends on what you're looking to achieve. If you want more speed, go for a smaller front sprocket and a larger rear sprocket. If you want better acceleration and torque, do the opposite. Just make sure to keep it within the recommended range to avoid damaging your bike.


When two people are on a tandem bike can they peddle at different speeds than each other?

No. The two chainrings are linked together with one chain. The chainring of the second person actually drives the rear sprocket, but since there's a chain that links up that person's sprocket with the one in front, both parties must pedal at the same speed. I suppose it would be possible to use a larger or smaller sprocket in the front to accomplish this. one could also use a 2 speed sprocket with a tensioner to change the ratio of the front sprocket with respect to the rear.


How do you make a Honda XR 80 go faster?

Change the rear sprocket from the standard 46 tooth to a smaller 34 or 36 tooth and the maximum speed will increase.
