Change your gearing ratio. Rev box will only bring you trouble.
yea what sidewinder siad.

Rev Boxes just raise the limeter, you usually dont use that extra 1000RPM anyways, pretty pointless.

how do you change the gearing ratio?
Adding teeth to the front sprocket or losing them from the rear would probably fix your problem.
adding 1 tooth in the front is like dropping 3 teeth in the back. But a 36 tooth rear sprocket is the smallest you can put on.

kinda tight on money is ther any other way to do it?
a sprocket is like 10 bucks lol its really that tight?

the fronts are like $10-20 and thats the one i suggest putting on. Do you know your ratio? Have you changed it at all?

Check what size sprockets you have and report back.
