When I had my f4i I had the idle at 2k to 2500. 3k if I were trying spreader or hc circles

Re: Best sprocket combo f4i

depends on what your using it for. if you want to stunt it but still be able to ride it around town and on the freeway here and there then a 50-54 tooth is the way to go. if you are only stunting it and thats it then i would recommend 60 and up because you can be riding the same idle at a slower velocity, this means a stronger idle, easier to clutch it up and less stress on the bike, less rat traps, tighter circles, and less clutch slipping needed. only drawback is it makes it more twitchy. but nowadays its all about setting the throttle and forgetting it, just riding that brake while round and round you go dancing around on the bike, jumping to this, stepping to that, like a ballerina.

ima gonna have pretty much the same when i go back to stock in the front

i currently have a 56 -1, although i'm gonna get the stock sprocket back on the front. my chain is at its furthest mark"replace" and its new.

i'm pretty sure if i get the stock sprocket back on the front it will bring my tire up to where its supposed to be.
