Sprocket Ratio's......

[Disco]

Hey Guy's, Was just curiouse am in the process of sorting some sprockets and was just wondering, If going -1 on the front is the same as going +3 on the rear....Does it make any difference to performance to do one or the other????

The advantage of going -1 on the front is that I can use the chain I have .

Cheers Dave....

Stock is 16/43.....Looking at either 15/43 or 16/46....But may need a new chain to go up at the rear ....

[Six Addict]

43/16=2.6875

43/15=2.866

46/16=2.875

bees dick in it, go the front change mate...

Is it enough for me to be able to pop a mono

will go the -1 front...Which sux a little cause the vortex sprockets look horn

How did you calculate that so quick Pinchy?

Don't laugh I asked Jamie that..... Bike would be lucky to do 120km/h

get a calculator and do rear procket divided by front sprocket and u have the ratio

if u did 46/15 you'd be on the back wheel everywhere

[timmyrocks]

go one down on the front, and get the 43 toothed bling hardened annondised alloy rear which are lighter also and look cooler.
oh n you should be able to get it on the back wheel with standard gearing, my honda does just slam it down a gear, and jerk handlebars back and clutch her up

although if you can do it with just power its safer and easier to handle

HTFU Disco it's doable on the standard gearing. Bring the bike around and I wil show you

drop down one on the front anyway. it will make the bike feel alot more positive under power
