Has anybody done this mod or knows about it? Please share. This is the best chain on the market, period. By using the OPTIMUM gearing ratio you essentially lower the final drive ratio the exact percentage that the bike will "top out" in 6th gear due to wind resistance and horsepower restrictions. With the stock gearing your bike has a top speed of about for example But it's not at redline. With this setup the top speed is STILL and it IS at redline meaning that all of the horsepower is being used to move the bike forward, and it's not being wasted on friction or fighting the motor itself because of the poor factory gearing.

There are a few things that everybody thinking about this setup should take into consideration. Though not difficult to install, we suggest that this not be your first attempt at maintaining or upgrading your motorcycle. Wheelies are going to be a problem. Possibly not a problem! Depends on your perspective! The improvements are great, and you will have a period of getting accustomed to the increase in power.

Abuse voids warranty. Simply put, if you do not maintain the chain or out-right abuse the equipment, there is no warranty. Fuel consumption In 5th 6th gear.

On all bikes except the SV as tested, fuel consumption will increase an average of 1 to 2 miles per gallon at cruising speeds.

If you have a cross-country motorcycle that stays in 6th gear for miles or more at a time, we have a chain and sprocket set for that too. We accept no liability whatsoever except for the replacement price of any defective parts. From January of to August, we have had ONE structurally defective sprocket and it was found to be defective far before installation. Extensive testing, quality control models and visual inspection assure that you get the parts you need.

Speedometer issues. I don't ride highway much, and I want the front end to be much lighter than it is right now. Tough decision here. Thanks FotoMoto, info. Another two reasons for keeping the front sprocket stock are: 1 you would otherwise lose the rubber noise dampener and 2 the tighter you make the chain turn, the shorter it will live. Probably more of an issue with a 14, rather than a 15, though. Much less wear than normal AL, though still less durable than steel.

Granted a punishes a chain less than a VFR, but it was my daily rider for a year on the street before I made it track-only, and the TT sprockets held up nicely. I have to wonder though, why would you leave a place like Iowa to live in Honolulu? Must be a nice change from the dreary Quad Cities. I now that hardracers.
