i wanna upgrade my sprocket i hear alot of people talkin about the 16/42 if i did this how much top end i lose and whats the bennies of im 300+ wanna snap on these lights boys but dont wanna lose to much top end cause i do ride out
 
top speed will be limited to about 165. I run a 16/42 at the strip. I don't like it on the street. Quite a few people do. Put a 16 front on it and try it. That is about 1/2 way in the middle. You can put the 42 on it if you don't think that is enough.
 
thanks im going to try that this weekend

I'm running a 16/43 and I went out riding with friends and "man" what a difference it made. I was riding against an 02 suzuki 1k and a honda 929. I could pull away with easy against the 1k. The 1k has a few mods and is track ready, so it wasn't stock. I enjoyed it.
 
I put on a 43 rear back in October and now I don't even notice the difference anymore... except when I need to manuever at very low speeds around a parking lot (gotta be careful and easy on the throttle).

I like the 43 for sure, though... a bit more oomph!
 
I've run the 16 /42 for a few months now and love it for the mountains and twisties. With this setup in the twisties I almost never touch the brakes. However, I usually avoid interstate travel with it, just not quite as comfortable there as with stock gearing. It IS FUN though!
