My bike has always zipped right up to redline even before the NARK, and the DPO told me it had a 16t sprocket. Being a trusting sort of guy I ordered a 17 and 18 T sprocket from Bellacorse, only to find an 18T already installed. I put the 17 on anyway , I figured after paying $6 for a 36mm socket I was ***** well going to change something. Anyway, if anybody wants a brand new 18T, they can have it for half what I paid for it i.e. $9.50+ postage.
The bike is still accelating hard when it hits the Procom RPM limit of 8200 despite the mains still only at 140.
