Will you put suspension on it?

The gearing and wheel size are something you should play around with a little bit. You get to choose how much of the power your engine puts out goes to take-off, and how much goes to getting that speed way up. It could depend on where you'll be mostly driving it. If in lots of woods, you might want more acceleration than top speed (from my woods riding experience), but for wide open deserts full of dunes, you might wanna get a little more speed out of it.

Even though you're on a budget, you can always save up a another $20-$30 to get a new sprocket later on down the line if it's not performing like you'd like.

Find out the ratio of high gear and the red line rpm, from there you can figure out the ratio you will need.
