Install of a black powder coat 48 tooth Sunstar sprocket is pretty much the last Silver part on the bike short of the headers, mid-pipe and fork stanchion tubes... All the rest is Black Powder Coat. Not for everyone, but I like it!
I may need a new project now!
Yes, a 48 will fit w/2" slack, but the wheel base is shorter now by 3/8"! Still on the OEM chain and this is test to see if helps in some low speed corners; i.e. being in 2nd vs 1st. Hopefully I'll know over the week!
Also, this sprocket is about a 1/3 the weight of the OEM due to where they removed material.
