squid hear loud n clear.............so ive been practicing my wheelies and currently my bike is -1 in front stock on rear,,,,,,,i have been pulling them off but not consistantly ......fel like i have 2 rev up 2 high and pop the clutch to get me up.......my quetion is should i get a bigger rear sprocket , if so what size do you recomend ? or just keep stock and work more on it the way it is?

 

If you ride on the streets then a 52 if you ride the lot only get a 60

Gearing is different for everyone. Some people ride stock gearing for everything. I run +10(56) for everything

 

Man you are on top of these links all the time. good looking out.

 

Im at work all night so i gotta have SOMETHING to do haha

 

ok one guy gave me good info.......i have the basics down as far as revn up. covering footbreak....ect.... im not sayn sprocket will make my job easier but think it will help me come up less violently,,,,,,,read the wheelie guid suggested ...great info.......so does 56 rear sound about right

 

o my f4i has 954 fron end.....could this be an issue.....due 2 weight of this set up......what would be better

 

954 front end is

56 on an f4i is +10... i use it for lots and streets and it works good. Just remember more gearing makes throttle more twitchy. Usually easier for people to learn on stock or close to stock gearing.

Just keep practicing you'll get it.

 

thanks

 

Somewhat related question...

When I read the old threads, why do the avatars for most of the old peeps show up all squirrelly looking and pixelated?

Anybody know?

 

i ride on street and lot...i'm -1 in front and +10 in back and i love it. just sucks when we go ride in atlanta (about an hour away) because at 80-90mph i'm screaming down the highway because of my rpms ha

 

I know what ya mean, I rode for two years with -3 +10 (13 front 56rear), limited flat out bouncing rev limiter speed to 135 on level ground., but got there quick,lol

 

i rock -1 front +4 rear ... amazing set up cause i usually ride to the spots ... 70mph my speedo registers 98mph, 35mph speedo says 30mph

 

i would stay with what you have if you are just riding the streets

 

Technically it should make it come up more violently, and the throttle will be more touchy

But do what you wanna do, I'd suggest riding stock tell you can hold a wheelie at a steady speed personally

 

honestly running +14 on my f4i, I ride 140miles one way regularly, and the noise of the motor doesn't bother me at all. at 80mph I can't hear the motor, I just hear wind noise

I've been rocking +14 on the streets for around 2 years now, doesn't bother me at all
