Performance Mods....What order??

[2Wheels2Live]

Not to hijack the thread, but I have a sprocket question.

Was gonna go -1 / +2
I read a few guys like +3 in the rear.
If I go +-0 / +3 will it be similar to -1 / +2 ??

I have no intentions of going 194mph, so cutting some of the top end off is fine. Just looking for some more in the low end, and 'effortless' wheelies.

Going down 1 tooth in front equals about 2 & 1/2 teeth up in the rear, so going -1/+2 would be like going up 4 & 1/2 in the rear, compared to just going up the 3 you're thinking about. 3 up in the back will make a big increase in acceleration and wheelies, but I don't think the stock chain will fit it. Plus, -1/+2 will make a HUGE difference in low end and acceleration, and you'll be very hard pressed to keep the front end down in the first few gears unless you're pretty da_mn easy on the throttle.........so yes, wheelies will most definately be effortless You're top end will be 180 at the true derestricted (with a tre or BoostbySmiths derestrictor) redline, but you'll get there crazy fast

Thanks for the informative reply. I actually learned something! -1/+2 it is, since I don't wanna buy a new chain. Anyone confirm the stock chain won't fit a 0/+3?

It's a '99. No restrictions here!
