[QUOTE="Diogenes, post: 26431, member: 91"] I assume you have standard 998cc engine. Easier to try H5/45 tooth rear sprocket first, to see how you like higher gearing.[VINPARTS stock]. Reduced unsprung weight,too! And you can claim your bike is part-Lightning! Unless you are built like a midget, with no luggage and no passenger, it is likely that you will get poorer performance with higher gearing, with more need for gear changing on upgrades and headwinds. The standard 21/46 set up is already deliberately set too high, for best fuel economy etc. [/QUOTE]
