That might do it but it will be a little less lively at lower rpm and I could already use some livening up. I'd rather leave front 18 and see what I could do with the rear because the rear is so much easier to change.
Buy a 46 tooth rear sprocket!
Going up 3 teeth makes a huge difference in fun factor.
The rpm's only increase around 600, stock tach, what rpm actually is...who cares. Point being, it's not enough to make it bad.
It moves the rpm alot closer to where the power starts to come on.
You know what I mean. You twist it wide open from idle, you're movin, but you know when the power really comes on. Right there.
With Ecu Editor or flash, it's even better. The top end is still there too.
175mph ish is great cruising any time. If you really want 200mph, you have to change sprockets anyway.
A 46t flashed, piped, stock wheel base Busa is awesome to play on.
Roll on burn outs, 4th gear power wheelies. Mine would pull the tire at least 6" at 100+mph, letting off and snapping throttle wide open, in 4th.
Impressive for 500+ lbs and 180hp.
Like a big, fat 1k with alot of torque.
Stock, the Busa wheelies easy. It just floats into place.
With these changes, lol, you just rip it up.
It's what? $75-$150 for a rear sprocket, depending on brand and material. And 10 extra minutes at your next tire change to find out.
Live a little, go be a hooligan.
