You'll have to change sprockets if you go with the 520 chain. As long as you're changing chain and sprockets, you might as well optimize the gearing for the...
... On the Bevelheads list there has been a lot of discussion of the "hunting tooth" condition. It seems logical to me that you want a combination of odd and...
Hey guys, I've reached the point where I need to get serious about selling the GT. If you know of anyone who might be interested in a low milage, well kept...

I was eagerly awaiting the episode of Super Bikes so that I could see how much footage those of us who made it out to Milpitas were in. There were a few shots...
Not sure what you mean by wanting a "higher rpm" but: a. Using a bigger rear (or smaller front) sprocket will mean more rpms for any given speed, in any gear,...
Thanks a lot...that really cleared the confusion, i'll be going with 15\41 -stock is 15\38- Yes the stock chain is 525 and i will be replacing it with a gold ...
Correct. But because you will be using a larger than stock rear sprocket you will need a chain slightly longer than the stock chain (probably). Again, I don't...
I wrote an article a while ago covering this, it was for a Thunderbird Sport, but valid all the same: http://www.webbikeworld.com/t2/motorcycle-chain-sprocket/...
KReddy - I was bummed that they spent more time covering the umbrella girls w/ body art that us riding circles in the parking lot!! :-) That said - we are now...
I prefer the 15 front and 41 rear even though the 14:38 combo produces virtually the same final drive ratios because their is less friction caused by a 15...
