Havent changed gearing myself (apart from 14t front) but other people have with mixed results. When talking about sprockets on vtwins.cc Guido mentioned it ...

Although I have an STM setup, I put a 39T instead of the std 38T (for my '01 748R) when I installed the new carrier.
It really scuppered my mpg figures when caning it, leaving me panting for fuel after 85-90 miles off a full tank. I've reverted back to the 38T without too much loss in low-end grunt but am now back to 110+ miles on "full chat" which suits me better.

Guido / Guy - have you come out of hiding from bonfires yet?!
