gearing for a zx7r
gearing for a zx7r
i know its a pig to stunt and all but thats all i got and i cant afford anything else at the moment beside some protection (cages) and sprokets
.. my rear is at 45 teeth right now, and my front is... 18? i cant really remember.. but i was thinking go 1 down and 60 in the back?.. im only concerned about not being able to get on the highway again
i still wanna b able to hit highway speeds.. anyone does this b4 on a 7r or any suggestions that may help?
thanx in advance

i just wanna b able to get on the highway.. so around 150, 160ish km/hr will do for me.. this coming season will b pure stunts
or at least trying to stunt lol Re: gearing for a zx7r
I had a '98 zx7r and had 2 down and 8 up on it. You wont get 150mph out of it but it seemed to work well for downtown and lots. They are beastly *** bikes and if you plan on doing slow stuff I'd say **** the top end and gear the **** outta it. Hard to find that happy medium.

My friends GSXR 600 with 60 rear -1 front still hits around 180/190KM/h
but thats banging off the limmiter
My gearing gives me about the same top speed and I still hit the highway when I have too.......but I try and stay away from it as much as possible.
I will tell you this though if I could do it all over again Id start with less gearing than I did and work my way up to the big gears.
