    Hello, old subject ,new for me. I have stock gearing/sprockets. Would like to make it easier to start from a stop, so normal I would drop front sprocket one tooth,easier take off. [ right ?]. Also want to cruise on freeway about 70 tops
    maybe 2up. 400lbs, so from reading on the internet drop rear to 41. Will this give needed results ??? I don't understand gearing chart someone suggested. Thank you for any help.
