Re: Is there an 'illegal' sprocket size?

Lol please explain why someone would need a sprocket that big for? Is it difficult to stunt with? Looks like it might scrape the groung when doing a circle to the left.

Re: Is there an 'illegal' sprocket size?

Turn the idle up...Yes, VERY little, LoL....Really theres no such thing as 4-6th gear. Even if u do manage to get it in 6th, u can probably run as fast as it goes, LMAO.......This always brings new meaning to the term "Pizza Sprocket"....Maybe a large pizza, LoL...=-)

Difficult to stunt with, YEAH if u dont know ur bikes power. And if u dont know your throttle and brake control. But hell stunting relies on brake and throttle control. So i guess if u can hang on a smaller sprocket, u shouldnt have a problem on this sprocket....=-)

Thumbs up Re: Is there an 'illegal' sprocket size?

I've never seen a DOT stamp on a sprocket...
