Can't get it up!!!!
 

I want to make my bike easier to wheelie. I'm 5'11" 216 and I want to go with new sprockets. Will -1 +2 be enough to power up or should I go more? A friend of mine went -1 +6 on his 03 or 04 ninja 636. I don't know if the stock gears are the same as my 600rr but that sounds like a lot.

stock is already enough to power it up...i think you should get your timing down better.
-1 will do it for you...-1 +2 will come up real easy...poor RR...make sure you take her to the track and not all this wheelie stuff which she was not made for!

Don't get me wrong, just want to wheelie every once in a while and I would love to go to the track but don't think there are any tracks around the bay area in FL.

heehee, heehee! ok, im being immature. :D

I you want it to wheelie "easier" and still want to ride it on the freeway then go with -1/+2. If you want to ride it to your local deserted business park parking lot to stunt ride, getting there only on city street and not going over 45 - 50mph then go up to what ever you want on the back.

Can someone explain what -1 +2 means as far as sprockets... i am a little uneducated when it comes to suspension.... thanks

Might need to see a doctor for the "blue pill" LOL LOL [sm=groupwave.gif]

RE: Can't get it up!!!!
 

wow...not just in suspension i guess...buahhaha...it's the sprockets...to get quicker acceleration, you would either get a sprocket with less teeth up front or more teeth in the rear.
so -1 +2 means dropping by 1 tooth in the front and increasing by 2 teeth in the rear sprocket. so it's all gearing...and nothing to do with suspension.

get it? got it? good!

RE: Can't get it up!!!!
 

there isn't much...you're pretty screwed...buhahaha j/k...you have to ride out of the state to hit some real nice roads...i'm very sorry...i will ride for you!

RE: Can't get it up!!!!
 

-1 in front is equal to about +3 in the rear....I did what are are thinking about but just went -2 up front...only $22 and a 15 min mod beginning to end. That way if going to do a track day can throw stock gearing back on...I have a -1 also just depending what riding going to do....the -2 is HUGE....not only for 'getting it up"...but also just acceleration off the line....I thought I needed a 1000RR until did this....going up in the back has bennefits but couldn't change around gearing all the time and a LOT more cost involved.

I went PBI sprockets through dealer.
