are you looking to correct the speedometer for the new tires and gearing change? If so theres a company called the gear box that I went through to get an adapter to adjust mine.

Yes I am looking for both, could you provide a link to this company?

Also, does anyone know if the 7/21 drive/driven gears would be close...

right now I have a 9 tooth gear.

You may find some helpful info in the sticky at the top of the page (including how to swap out the drive gear).
