was supposed to go -1 in the front too, but something happened with the place I ordered it from and they didnt have it, so I ended up with a stock count.

im always wondering if this will make the wheelies easier. or harder. cause im sure it will come up easier. but now wont it be more touchy, requiring more throttle control?? im tryin to learn precise throttle control now. while up on one. so im afraid to go up in teh rear. tho id love to for the easier wheelies and great acceleration. REPORT BACK!
yeah i'm waiting to see now as well, the only reason i got them was my oem ones are whooped, 15k+ on the oem cahin & sprockets, so it was time to swap em out... I'll let ya know how it goes...hopefully I learned enough from my 50 to adjust to this.
i couldn't pull my stock rr up in second. i got 15/45 and that little bit extra pull up power helped me learn how to wheelie better. now i can whellie my roomates(stock gearing) just fine. so yea, i think a small sprocket change could help out. anyway sorry to jack.... sprocket looks dope.
I went out for a ride, the whoooooooolies come alot easier, less rev invovled, but I think I'm gonna go -1 in the front too, I too cannot get 2nd gear up higher than a foot... but I'll wait and see, havent got to play with the bike much, only once...


btw: on a side note while installing the sprockets bymyself my bike fell off the stand, thank you powerrailz, lol
ooohhhh, good timing, lol. the railz just paid for themselves already. case covers aren't cheap.
see the thing is i have no problems getting the bike to come up in 2nd. stock gearing. its just keeping it there. i get scared and usually chop the throttle. but now im gettin used to it...as always, practice practice. i really wanna learn slow stuff. but thats when the bikes drop easily...ehhee i dont even have frame sliders! :eek:

dam man go get the 905 cage someone is selling int he classifieds, haha...cuz one day it may come in handy, hopefully not..*knock on wood*
so anyways. its been over a week. i wanna review!
Its been good, took some time to get used to the throttle again, but now I've got it pretty good, I'll have some pics up later tonight hopefully I even managed to get video of my gaaaaaarbage wheelies..lol
im sure they are better than mine. havent been on my bike in 8 days. hopped on it today. got a wheelie up to balance point in 2nd jumped right into it from clutching. but as always, i get nervous and let off the throttle too much. then it lunges..then i give it more gas. and it like jumps. scares the **** outta me. hard to describe. ill get smooth soon..i hope. hahaha
i know what you mean, thats what happens to me when I clutch up from a crawl in 1st gear sitdown, I turn into a sushi chef and *chop chop chop* only on a stand-up staggered that I can clutch up and ride out smoothly..as of now..
