Default Tallest Sprocket

Anyone know what the tallest sprocket available is for the 600rr 06. Please don't question the madness there is a method. I basicly want to drop my rpm's to 4,000 at about 75 mph. and before ya say aything I can't see how this will affect top speed since you can allways click down a gear or too. I'm betting that by doing this I will get a HUGE boost in mpg and much less wear on the engine since a good bit of time its on interstate. Pluss it would be fun to go past speed limit in 1st gear lol

You might want to do a little more reasearch before you do this.

17/37 is a final drive of 2.176...

The tallest I'd ever recommened would be 16/40

With that tall a gearing, you'll never be able to hit top speed becuase the bike won't pull it.

Probably less MPG than you think, and more engine wear too.. With that tall a gearing you're going to eat clutches and put a ton of stress on the tranny becuase you going to have to slip the clutch a ton just get the bike moving.
