Hello BS441!
My best tip is stay behind that wonderful fellow Dollar Bill.

Good luck, stay black!

15/39. Ya gotta grind a little of the swingarm to fit the 15 though.

Stoopid Question:

But can I run 14 and 42 And not have to grind the swingarm? The only thing I am good at griding is Krytonite Locks (dont ask)

**mmracer37** · 10-09-08, 10:21 AM

You'll be bouncing off the rev limiter if you run a 14.

**mmracer37** · 10-09-08, 10:24 AM

It's really easy to grind the swingarm, it's just a little nub that sticks out.

Dan on a motard. What is this world coming to? Pretty soon, Zip Tie Alley is going to become Motard Alley. All that's left to convert is Paul & Matty. (and get DB to convert the KTM to a race bike.)

Dont need to, I already got a race prepped one under agreement.

Dan what I think you meant to ask was instead of 15/39 maybe you could run 14/36 which would keep roughly the same gear ratio....

Oh yah, and the kid. But he'd probably be faster on a dirt bike so he should stay with the SV

Yes I am racing the R6 next season. After riding R7's 450, if budget allows, a little ways into the season I want to pick up a tard and do a race or two a weekend on it as well.

I got 15/38 and it's just a bit tooooo tall. 39 will be good though. I have a 40tooth brandy new I'll sell you mad cheap. Like 40 bucks. It was 70 when I bought it.

no tard for me

**seth399** · 10-09-08, 02:51 PM

Alex had showed me the post along time ago where Mike mentioned 15/39 (which he just did again) so I was planning on starting with 15/39 or 15/40 and adjusting as I see fit from there
