RE: Sprockets
-1 in front and +2 in the rear. Dropping two in the front would be retarded. That would be like adding 8 teeth in the back. I dont know if they make a -2 front. But anyway that is the best setup that ive read about. That is my next mod. I hope somebody with this setup i mentioned can chime in and tell us how hard it is to keep the front wheel down in 1st gear under wot.

RE: Sprockets
So... you mean leave my renthal with 45 teeth, and just go -1 in front.
I got a friend of mine change my rear sprocket and I don't know how many
teeth the stock sprocket have.
My front ones are still stock.
So...what I was thinking...if my rear stock has 45 teeth like my renthal now, I
will just go -1 in front.
Or that's just retarded....lol!

RE: Sprockets
I have -1 in the front with a Vortex ALUM rear spocket ( stock ) teeth on the rear and the 520 chain and it's better, but not crazy! I am thinking about going +2 on the rear when I get a new rear tire. -1 on the front is like going up 2.75 on the rear.
You never want to go more then -1 on the front or you can risk the chain binding and that is all around bad.

RE: Sprockets
I've been looking into changing my sprokets as well. I found a guy on ebay, and it was the only write up I liked, called him, and he sounded like he knew what he was talking about. He suggested not going down in the front, and only increasing the rear.... i was thinking about doing a 16/50....any ideas, suggestions. i think it is similar to doing -1/+2

RE: Sprockets
I've got -1 in the front and +2 in the rear with a 520 chain. Really made the bike wake up. No real control issues as long as your not greedy with the throtle layed over. I recomend it. -2 in the front would be over kill. You would spend your half your time up against the rev limiter.
