Sprocket question
Sprocket question
My stock sprocket setting is 15-40
i went down one in teh front and I didn't think it made a big differance, so I just ordered a 43 tooth rear sprocket ......i want to get more torque low end and be able to start learning to ride her slower when i am up right....but i didn't want to go too crazy so I wouldn't loose to much street driveability.....
What do you guys think good choice or will i be asking for more sprocket later......I don't plan on going full competative stunt but enough to be able to have fun in a parkinglot as well as still rippin street.......any comments or suggestions would be welcome

Re: Sprocket question
You wont lose much top end even with moderate sprocket changes. When you go up 3 in the rear, you will hardly notice that change either (its similar to going one down in the front).
If I was you, I would drop 3 in the front and see how you like that. It will be a noticeable change and you still wont lose too much top end. Also, its obviously cheaper to buy front sprockets rather than back ones so if you can get away with only doing th efront.....do that!!!
