So I got my 16t front sprocket and got started on it today. I removed the little plate and the thing with the bendy tabs and swapped the old 15t...
My bike was missing almost all the rubber spacers for the tank until last fall. didn't notice any difference.
I'd have to agree with Loops
Well I may leave it 108 since I would like the wheel a bit further back from the swingarm.
Ok....so the new sprockets are on their way. 16/41....Jamie recommends 16/43 but I assume that's to stock gearing and I'd like to rev lower on the...
