Gearing on WR250X

Just purchased and drove my WR 75 miles home today. Will be freeway commuting more than off-road stuff, so I'm looking to lower those highway rpms. Probably go the 14T front sprocket first. Motor was really busy at 70mph today. Kept looking for a tach...haha. Oh well..neat bike for sure.

Is it stock gearing??

I had the stock 13/42 on mine for a year or so. I took the highway from chicago to just into michigan (like an hour 15) and to me it felt fine. Recently I was doing 45 minuet, each way, highway commute for a week with my 13/48 and it definitely felt like I was pushing it too much and switched to a 1:15 side street route. As of now I usually hop on to the highway for 6 miles to work and it feels just fine.

Oh yes, stock gearing. Also noticed that the mirrors were fine at around 55mph, but at 70..not so.
