Was a joke, 82 inch diameter is huge, I assume you meant circumference

Hi. I run with over drive 5th and 6th front 20 rear 34 teeth.
Lower gearing moves the torque lower in the rpm's, which technically would make the bike want to squat more, as there is more torque sooner, speeding up the weight transfer when you launch the bike.
However, that should be a minimal if noticeable effect on most street bikes.
But, proper suspension setup and adjustment for the bike's use, is going to be the real determining factor in how it handles at any point.
Hey six, I am rereferring to chasing the anti-squat percentage back down as I raise the rear ride height and increase the swing arm angle.
Essentially reducing the size of the rear sprocket or increasing the size of the front (or lowering the pivot point) will reduce the amount of anti-squat percentage for a given swing arm angle.
I am wondering if anyone has noticed the changes to anti-squat with the 40-46 rears most of us are running.

They are in California, great to deal with, and if you don't see it on their site, ask them.
If they can't get it, it doesn't exhist, lol
How does this look for a 520 conversion then. Thinking about ditching the CreaCarbon rear sprocket idea.
Any better suggestions?

DID 520ZVM-X (seems to be the lightest of the heavy duty 520s vs RK520ZXW EK520Z3D EK520ZVX3 etc.)

I did a 520 conversion with Vortex sprockets and rear aluminum on my '03 Gsxr1k(530 stock), and my friend's 2018 Gsxr1k(525 stock) last year.
A D.I.D chain on the '03, and an EK on the '18
Both bikes lost over 2.3 lbs...which is alot of rotating mass.
My '03 is still an unfinished project.
The '18 has over 2k miles on the 520 conversion...and the chain still does not need adjusted.

Assuming it is a more sensible option with a 520 conversion to stick with steel sprockets. Anyone have weights for the RSX and RST Superlights?
Some more data points:
- SuperSprox Stealth 530 / 44 0.521kg so a 520 / 42 should be around 0.475kg
- Rotobox Alloy 520 / 42 0.341kg
- CreaCarbon 520 ./ 44 0.311kg so 42 should be 0.284kg
- Superlite RST Steel 520 / 42 0.675kg
- Standard Steel 530 / 43 0.957kg so a 520 / 42 should be around 0.7kg
