i'm gonna replace the sprockets on my bike, an 01 f4i, it currently has a -2,+2 set up on it. i typically use the bike for driving around town, lil bit a freeway, and hittin the stunt spot. with the current set up i'm turning 8k RPMs while cruising with the flow of traffic (70-80MPH) on the freeway. i could toleratecruising on the freeway around 9k or maybe 10k RPMs but no more than that.

so what size sprockets r u guys running both front n rear?N what RPMs r u turning while cruising on the freeway?i am thinking of going -1 in the front and a 55-60 tooth for the rear. or do u guys think i should keep the front the stock 16 teeth n just go a few more teeth bigger in the back?

thanks for any advice

 

-1 +25....Yes thats a 72 tooth rear sprocket. Basically a 16 inch sprocket on a 17 inch wheel, hehe

WHEELIE KING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

haha thanks dawg but, i still use this bike to do a lil running around the town, i can't turn it into a full on parking lot stunter just yet

 

Yeah i know. Aight on a serious note...-1 +2, maybe even -1 +5 << If you like wheelies in the lot and on the street...I went -1 +2 on my 954 and thats plenty for me. Just enough to cruise and a lil more pooh to get the wheel up. Plus its scares the hell out of those stock Gixxer 1K's to see a 954 run off and leave them from 1st to 4th. That 1K actually has to work to catch up, LMAO. But i tell them all the time.....The 1/4 mile was over with 5 miles back there, LMAO....=-)

They get pizzed when they realise my streetfighter just handed their full blown street bike an azz whippin...=-)

 

Whatever you like, you can easily do it all on stock gearing if you want to. A good mix is -1 +2 though.

 

i just got new spokets yesterday and i got -1 front and + 5 rear so that gunna b a big diffrece
