| Recommended Gearing Questions come up regularly about recommended sprocket changes and the required chain lengths for superbikes. Here's my recommendations for general street and track use.  There's a "sweet spot" - around 4,600 RPM @120Km/hr in 6th gear for liter displacement superbikes, a little higher for 74X's. Obviously, faster tracks will require rear sprockets with fewer teeth, slower tracks more teeth (and possibly longer chains.) I strongly recommended NOT changing the stock front sprocket or chain size for safety reasons. Just my opinion. Last edited by Shazaam! : 08-Feb-2009 at 00:15.  |
