Anyone have a 43 Rear Sprocket I can borrow / Buy for Snett please.
Would a 42 work as well or would I struggle to get of the start line ?
Currently running a 14F 44R

Thx

42 hasn't been a problem for me in the past. It is obviously slightly more sluggish, but not bad. Once I have decided what I'm using, feel free to borrow any of the others.

remember Craig may have a different motor, his standard gearing is 15/46.

I'm going to try standard gearing Craig, see what happens, that like a 43 with your 14 fitted, or close to.

Craig I have a standard Steel 43 Sprocket you can have

Thanks Kev & Ron, I'll come and see you at Snett. May have to collect my tickets up there though as I left it so late.

I have spare sprockets too Craig.. Found 14/41 was right for me last year

14/43 is bang on for Mallory, Brands and near enough for Anglesey, but with the long straights at Snetterton??

different engine

Phil has put his to a 14/41 today and I'm going to try 14/43 I think

[Gbyte666]

Hmmm 42 or a 41 it sounds like a need to try then. Its a late 2001 engine with currently 14/44. I was 14/46 at brands.

Craig I'd try the 14/44 you already have and have the 43 ready to go

had this discussion with Phil roday, not sure you'd be able to pull max revs on the rearlly low gearing. Skids suggestion seems best; are you doing the trackday? If not, I could try it and let you know if I run out of revs...
