New Sprocket

Post by genisis »

Hi All,

Bikes in today for a load of work and i've got them to fit a 43 tooth rear sprocket for me.

However i'm having a dumb moment. I'm looking at the Speedo Healer to correct the difference and was just wondering if anyone knew the stock error %

Also is it going to make the bike think it's going faster or slow than it is?

Thanks
Matthew

In answer to your question, the standard speedo is going to be reading faster than what your actual speed is :!:

as mike said, it will only over read, the speedo healer is useful as it doesnt increase the millage excessively however if your not planing to sell your bike anytime soon it shouldn't prove a problem!

Youll love the 43 tooth rear, in my opinion they should really of been that way stock!

Well i pick it up this afternoon :) as they didn't finish it yesterday
think i'll leave the healer now and get the K&N or pipercross air filter as she is in desperate need for a new filter :oops:

can't wait to try it out.

is there much difference between the pipercross and k&n filter other than brand names
