Is -1 +10 enough to do ss and circle wheelies. I want to still be able to go on the highway somewhat comfortably. Its a 91 f2. Thanks

 

thats the same as 13 up in the rear... so um ya

My buddy is only up 5 on the rear on his R6 so your good!

 

Yeah that's enough.

 

2001 F4i with +14 in the rear on the highway I can go 70mph at about 8,000 RPM anything faster than that I worry about my engine Now for slow stuff I love it! :YEAH

 

Thanks for the fast replies do you think that ill be able to any lower or is that pretty much the limit. I have never done circle wheelies before so this is what ill be learning on and i hope to have them down by the end of the season.

 

you shouldnt need sprockets to do circles

 

Said the man with no circles.

Re: someone tell me what im doing wrong

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i cant do circles ether but, as far as i can see, controll it a lil more b4 you dip in... and keep it off the bar

 

Well then what do you think would be my best option im definitely doing sprockets but i want to keep it as streetable as possible and still be able to do the ss. thanks

 

I am -1+10 on my 929 and it is plenty for circles and still streetable.I don't have any experience with an f2 but i would imagine thats plenty of gear for that bike.May tach a little high on the freeway though.

 

any bike will circle stock with the right rider and time spent working it. THe f2/3 whatever definately benefits from a little gear in the lot, although i like em best stock...

 

my boy had the same gearing on his f3...can slow roll as slow as he wants...ss are perfect and its still pretty damn good for the highways..he rides highways everyday with it...

 

my 600 is -1 +4 and its plenty i dont care for it on the highway since about 70 im at 7k rpm its a gsxr 600 so maybe a little different but you get the point

 

I wish I could circle but im no help there. My gears are -1 +10 it is still very streetable in town. With no speedo calib. ive pushed it to 140 showing. Probably more like 100-110 real speed. At 70 about 7k real speed.

 

all i was sayin was you shouldnt need them for circles, i cant do more than 1 i got 2 once but it was pure luck so... back off paul you spent way too much time trying to call me out. o and im not geared ether

 

Why should you worry about you're engine? It's made to go up to 13.000 15.000 rpm?

 

you want some cheese with the whine, my stock 636 is at 7k at 75.
