Default Question on gearing

Anyone regear their bike? I was thinking of going -1 down in the front. Pick up a bit of torque and will move the rear wheel back slightly, which might help keep the front end down with the little boost in acceleration.

The -1/+2 was great on the F4i, but I think it would be to radical on a bike this powerful.

Or am I better off leaving it stock?

all up to u, i did the -1 +2 loved it for wheelies, but if u just want a little extra torque stick with -1 .. wont see a huge difference but wont be so big of difference of +2 -1... i also did 5 up in rear and -1 i loved that for 4th gear stand ups... all up to u

Well, I had two reasons for doing it.

It would give me a tad more acceleration, and it would slightly lengthen my wheelbase.

I think I will get the 15 tooth front sprocket. Thanks!

No interest in dragging. A simple -1 up front just might do the trick for now.
