Andyb made a general suggestion that 15/38 was a good choice for 99* bikes. I just wanted to point out that the 996's are an exception because of their much higher gearing.

The 996R's use the close-ratio box like the 998's and 999's.

I wasn't suggesting using 15/43 for a 996R, adam.

Oh man, Shazaam. I've been trying to follow this, wrote down your advice on a yellow sticky even! Now I'm totally confused. I think I have standard chain and sprockets on my 996. I want to increase the low down torque without affecting the top end enjoyment too noticeably. Is there a solution for that?
