Im pretty keen on this mod too. I cut to the front of the line usually and I feel slow getting off the line.

What are the rev at 75mph?

I did this mod recently and wholeheartedly agree this is a must do. The bike just feels "right." The bike seems much happier and always in the right gear. It is much more lively and in my opinion safer since it takes off from a stop with more authority and responsiveness. I have not noticed any added buzziness (but I did add HVMP bar ends at the same time). I now use my gps as my speedometer but eventually I'll get a speedohealer or something.

Yes on the 15 tooth. I love it. The bike still will do 130+ so that's plenty fast. I also did the speedo healer and that makes the speedometer accurate.
Great mods. :thumbup:

Well I'm throwing a 16t back on the bike, I have some touring coming up and the RPMs at highway speeds are just a little much for me. I do like the torque though, gonna be hard to give that up.

Anyone wanna buy a lightly used 15t? haha

hi all ! my question is would the 15 t make the 1st gear longer ? if so how much longer?

I find it very short and quickly have to change to 2nd !
