F2 Gear speed?

I just bought a sprocket chain kit for my CBR F2. I just had a few questions I hoped someone could answer. I went down 1 tooth in the front, and added 6 teeth in the rear. I have decided to practice slow stuff instead of fast wheelies, but my friend and I were having a debate I was hoping you guys could solve. My friend said With those sprockets my Bike is capible of wheelieing in forth gear. Is this true? Also how fast is my bike capible of wheelieing now? I don't have any intrest in doing those fast wheelies anymore, but it would be nice to know what my bike is capible of now! I was just wondering for braggin rights to my friends! Thanks alot hope to practice parkin lot stuntin after winter now! Thanks..

Re: F2 Gear speed?

how fast?? if you learn how to ride them the right way and shift gears you can ride them at readline in 6th..... Why do you need to pull it up in fourth? just pull it up in third for the freeway and if you need to, shift into fourth. Bragging rights dont count unless you can actually do it. Go practice.

Re: F2 Gear speed?

1st and 2nd are cool. 3rd will come up but you gotta clutch it good and hard.

thats a great gearing to learn on

What is your speed in 5th when you come up? And what is your top speed?

Re: F2 Gear speed?

i run 55T in the back. i call BS on clutching up 4th. i use 1st in the lots, and 2nd on the streets. who cares about fast wheelies anyway? i didn't gear down to go fast or slow. i geared down to have more engine brake and save my rear brake from fading.

Re: F2 Gear speed?

I had a +10 on my 92 and it would come up easily in 4th. EASILY. That was my (unlimited approach) coaster gear.

Thats like 3rd on stock gears. So I vote yes for -1 +6
