Shane depending on the actual primary drive ratio the bike would have had as standard road gearing 15/36 gearing if its a 2.28 to 1 primary (a lot taller than your 14/40 which is equal to 15/43) and 15/41 gearing if its a 2.00 to 1 primary (not far off your 14/40 which is equal to 15/43)
right the very first 600SS came with a 2.28 to 1 primary drive and had a 15T front sprocket and a 36T rear sprocket
During 1994 they changed the primary drive to a 2 to 1 ratio a change of 14% as such the final drive gearing need changing to compensate so the rear sprocket was also altered by 14%
well you could remove the clutch cover and count the teeth on the primary drive the other way of telling is the output shaft for the front sprocket is shorter on the 2.28 to 1 engines, maybe Mark Hamilton or Andy Claridge could let you know what their early engines measure
