-1 +9 it will come up easy top end will be lost and revs will be high but hey its all good fun
keep the other sprockets they wont come in wrong

I guess wheelies are fun... but why you'd want to go up to +9 unless you plan on stunting the bike almost 100% of the time... meh. Not for me!

You basically took a bike with a 160+ top speed and brought it down around 125. But it'll get there fast! And you can pull away from stoplights in 3rd gear.. hahaha.

Are you planning on making this a stunt only bike? If not... I think you're gonna get tired of that gearing but that's just me. I'd just get a liter bike myself..

:

And for the record... I'm at -1/+2 and as long as I'm above 8000 the front end comes up in first and second without a problem. Pull the throttle to where is stops... lol.

no not just stunting i ride to work and all around town with it and if i want to 5 mph wheelies the revs really aren't that bad to be honest not like i thought it was going to be

I guess I don't see the point man.

- really shitty mileage.
- no top end
- not stunting
- wanting to do wheelies all the time on city street? (Bad)

To each their own.

its funny how everyone talks about stunting in the streets but, everyone talks about 150 mph like its nothing going that fast on streets whats the difference

Yea that's what I was thinking even on the track in the straights u really don't get over 130, atleast I didn't lol. So going a few up wont take that much off but +9 I dunno, maybe if it was just for stunting

I agree with you, they are both equally bad. Stunting gets a lot of attention because the people doing it seem to be mostly show-offs (stereotyping and I know it) and really throw it in the "non-stunting" worlds face. But both are equally unsafe on the road.

Also, don't get me wrong, I don't really care if someone chooses to take their bike out on the road and wrap it around a tree. The problem with doing anything on the street is that there are too many other people who didn't sign up for your stunt or high speed run. You hit a car with 600 lbs of bike and rider and you might just kill someone else. Sure you won't be around for the aftermath but you might leave someone else's son or daughter or husband or wife without their beloved family member.
