with that kind of sprocket size, you will lose way too much top end. You will lose roughly about 10-15 mph on the top end according to this.

this shows you everything from your top end and what the sprocket conversions will give you. hope this helps.

if you drag race a -1/+2 should fit the bill. And you really dont wanna go bigger than a 48t on the rear . All those will reduce the top end tho. but if you drag race you'll never hot top speed of the bike in a 1/4 no how.

n not to mention a 50 -51t you will be standing er up at will.

hmmmm....I did a -1 on the front and the bike tops out around 153 ish on the track. The front end comes up really easy in first gear. But who really goes 150+mph? lol
