Sprockets please

Post by freeridenick »

I'm looking for front and rear sprockets so I can experiment with gearing. Primarily I'd like a 42 tooth rear but a mix of stuff would be great. Maybe 43 rear and a 15 front too.

Experiment if you get them cheap. I found on track the smaller front just caused the engine braking to be to much and made it harder changing down causing the rear to lock. I ended up just using 1 tooth up on the back from stock. Raced mine at Brands and Lydden, Brands gearing generally same as Cadwell and a few other circuits, Lydden tight and twisty, It worked well at both.
