Giant sprockets?? What the *#[email protected] ??

huge motors pull so much harder that if they were geared way down they would sit and spin at launch and then about 4 feet into the track they would be put of gear

it is because a atv has primary gears , that reduces the gear ratio . if you r 1to1 in high gear in a atv it is reduced by the primary gears, even before the Chain reduction . a snomo powered atv , when it goes to 1to1 there is no primary gear reduction . if it was geared like a ATV it wold be geared to run 150 mph . or if it was a banshee based triple ,they probably changed the primary gears, to a higher ratio. for they can run a bigger sprocket on the back . this is a trick some do, to Gain more torque .without loosing top end
