  • This upgrade to your bike is definitely worth it! If you want to gain some more bottom end get up and go, then look into upgrading your sprockets.

    Rear Sprocket Aluminum vs. steel.. The steel is obviously much stronger and heavier, but with~3X more contact teeth on the rear, isn't an aluminum rear sprocket good enough? Of course all new together to wear together is key. What say?

    • @itsmeericb
      @itsmeericb  7 месяцев назад

      Aluminum will wear faster. Steel is much better for street use unless you plan to track your bike on a regular basis.

    • @itsmeericb
      @itsmeericb  Год назад

      Thanks! Might be a bit much in my opinion. If you don’t want a lot of bottom end kick just go with 16/45. Remember you’ll have to adjust your speedometer too to compensate.

    Thanks for this video. I just got a 22 GSXR 600 this past June upgrading from a Ninja 400. I’ve noticed myself it lacks torque in the low rpm range and was thinking 1 down in the front and 2 up in the back. I don’t really care about top speed because after 140mph I usually let off the throttle but I would like some more bottom end torque. I’ll also have to get a speedo healer to correct my mph gauge.
