gear ratio help

#1
I have a doodlebug
predator 212 hemi. With gov still on
3 stage loop exhaust
Ruixing carb .035 jet new imulsion tube
K and n air adapter


I have 15x6x6 rear tires
13t max torque clutch

My gear ratio is about 5.5 to 1

Will this harm my clutch ?

what is the range of gear ratio that
will not affect the clutch integrity?

Hi...that gear ratio you stated is ok for flat dirt or streets...rider weight and amount of hills matters..with high gear ratios I recommend not riding the clutch when you need to go real slow.. throttle,let clutch lock up and then coasting is best at real slow speeds to not overheat clutch..cheers
