For pulling wheelies? [?][:)] Mine's standard at present, but I might drop it to a 16 on the front when it's time to change, just for the extra poke during launches and overtakes if I'm not in the right gear. Mother Nature rides a biker

What C&S sets do you use? I've found big variations over the years on different bikes and find that Renthal sprockets and DID/EK chains give the best lifespan, but I've only 7000miles with the RSV to date?[8D] Mother Nature rides a biker

The manual say that the standard is 16/40. I haven't checked mine (yeah, too lazy[:I]), but I was considering tinkering. So what should I try? --------------------------------------------------------- '04 Factory in Silver Too much is never enough!

I have bought a 16/44 sprocket set but havent fitted them yet and i was wondering, does the gearing affect the speedo and if so has anybody tried altering it.

Speedo reading doesn't change, no need to alter it m8. The speedo pickup reads off of the rear brake disc bolts, so unless you change them to titanium or something it will read just fine. [:)]
