sprocket question

i have yet another sprocket question. i heard that going -2 in the front puts alot of strain on your drivetrain. i am gonna regear over the winter. i was going to just stay w/ -2 and change my rear to a +5. but if it puts alot of strain on the drivetrain should i just go -1 and go up maybe 8 or so. also, what would my top speed be, i would still kinda like to hit 130ish. i have a 01yzf600r. and im also regearing so i can do highway wheelies. thanx in advance for the help

I give u my , Stock gearing for a 99 blade is 16 - 42, I have changed mine to a 16 - 58, I didn't go down in the front as it puts strain of the drive train. top speed like 210km/h MAX at readline. gets there fast though.

It's **** for highways wheelies, your allways at high rpm PM me your email I will send you a gearing calculator then u can work out whats gonna be best for you.

If you go +6 in the rear that would probally be the best compromise for Highway and a bit more stick down low, other wise go massive in the rear you'll be set.
