so i was talkin to a few buddies at work who stunt also and ive been telling them how i wanna go with a 10 up sprocket... well they jump all over saying no dont get a bigger sprocket everyone is going back to stock and blah blah but when im in parking lots and **** i dam near run out of 1st gear by the time im all the way up and setteled... are any of u guys still on stock sprockets cause im hating life with it...

 

rock stock until you learn to make whoolies properly then get geared. also punch your friends in the face, no particular reason, just do it.

get point of balance as soon as you clutch it up you'll be able to go slower and fore as long as you need you'll know when your there the bike will get real light don't forget the back brake

 

def get bigger sprocket for parkin lots......... good idea

 

do whatever the hell u want, its ur bike

 

learn bp idle before u go with a bigger sprocket just my 1 cent

 

definatly gonna need to bump up my idle then its way too low right now , whats a good sprocket size to start messin with?? 56 tooth?

 

if you don't want to buy a new chain, get 1 dn 2 up and play with that for a little while then go bigger if you want....

 

your friends sound like some followers/posers!

if your runing out of gear on stock youll run out of gear 2xs as fast w/ a 10up sprocket

 

just go ahead and do whatever u want to, if u go big in the beginning that is what youll get used to, u got to get used to somethin at least that way u only have to get used to one thing instead of learnin stock and then relearnin big gear

 

true but id be able to get to balance point alot easier and controlled with a bigger sprocket , as of now im rev'in pretty high bringin it to balance point im gonna mess with my idle and set up a lil more before i re gear it tho thanks for the advice

 

not friends haha just work with them and yea they definatly are kind of a pair of doooossshhh bags when it comes to riding haha

 

how do you come on here and ask for advice, and then try to tell us what's up.....
if you can wheelie a stock bike you can wheelie a geared bike.... gearing doesnt make wheelies "easier" it allows you to get slower w/out stalling the bike

 

thats exactly what im goin for slower stuff ; )

 

learn to ride a wheelie first!
or **** it... do what you want... get a sprocket, then learn. either way doesnt matter you still gotta learn to ride a wheelie

 

The big goosey knows what he's talking about.

I've had both a 66 and a 50 on my old F4i each with about a years worth of time on them. I have a 54 on one of my 636's and my other has a 60. There are advantages to every setup. Just do what you want, if you don't like it sell it and start over. Worse case you'll lose 30 bucks after you recoup your funds.

 

56 tooth is prefect for lot and street. so i hear

 

it wont be more controlled with a bigger sprocket it will be a lot more choppy. and first gear you should be able to clutch it right to balance point no problem stock

 

i rock a -1, and i switch between a 45 rar and a 52. i like the 52, it seems to be great for the lot or street!!!

 

i think i am gonna go with like a 52 in the rear once i get the rest of my bike a lil more tuned up .. the guy who had my bike before set the power commander way low
