    1. Put the bike on a rear stand.

    3. Pull rear axle.
    4. Remove/replace 5 nuts and your rear sprocket is changed. Its quicker if you have a spare sprocket carrier with the new sprocket mounted, then you just swap carriers.
    5. Loosen left fairing.
    6. Pull counter sprocket cover off.
    7. Put bike in gear.
    8. Remove replace counter sprocket nut and front sprocket is changed.
    9. Replace rear wheel/chain/counter sprocket cover.
    10. Tighten chain.
    11. Tighten axle nut.

    If you have all the tools in front of you and are really trying to move quickly....takes bout 20 minutes.

    lol i thought you were talking about redoing the whole tranny gearing, didn't even think of that.

      Yes, bikes are a brick in the wind. lol Thats why they are all electronically limited to 184 MPH. Thats why the '99-00 Busa can pull 196MPH out of the box due to no speed limiter.

      How fast to average cars go out of the box? (No BS $250,000 cars now.)

      lol...."the math"....lol

      What do you own that can do 205?(I'm assuming you're talking about your 7?)

      What is a "full 5th pull"? Are you talking about on a dyno?

      Look at the drag coefficient of a bike once......... it is not very good

      It should do 200mph even with a shit DC cuz what is the power:weight??

      Ill bet your bike than my car will do 200+ on 15psi, bring the GPS and come for a ride if you aren't scared........

      .719 5th ratio
      4.11 rear ratio
      275/45/17 tires
      7500 rpm limit............
      do the math

      I have hit the limiter twice in 5th gear.......... dont believe me? bring your GPS and your title..........

          word, i completely beleive it. Hell my GTO did 189 with only 363whp, i would hope you can do at least that with as much power and a solid 1000lbs less weight! (BTW, i own a x-band radar gun, so yes, it was accurate)

          lets see
          .84 5th gear
          3.46 rear
          245/45-17 tire
          7190rpm

          According to the calculator, 7000rpm is 184, and 7500 is 197, so id say i am correct
          zac>me though

          2006 Trailblazer SS- my DD
          2002 Camaro- built N/A LS3, Flt level 5 trans, 8.8 rear

            Ok Zac, calm down, I will bow down to your "ballerness".

            No, I won't bet my bike. (I'm assuming if I would I get your 7? Unfortunately, I don't want your 7.) Like I hinted at above, I do not "ball" like you.

            I will, however do a cash wager on your car's 200 MPH run. The wager will be a number we agree on. If you tell me that you won't do it for less than $X, then I will take that as you buying your way out of the bet. I will make sure that it pays for your time and gas.

            I will be in the car. Do you have a datalogger for your boost?

            I'm excited to see you run 200.

              Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
              Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
              Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
              Torque is how far you take the wall with you

                    A car that is stock that runs 16's then modded to run 11's is >>>>>>>>>> a bike that runs 9's stock and then modded to run low 9's

                    Hmm i wonder why cars have a much easier time working bikes from races at higher speeds.......... hmmm no way aero has anything to do with it

                    sorry Math > you

                                  I am glad i got you so worked up, that is what i was going for.........

                                  Its the internet, and i love having the ability to say what i want to get the reaction i want, just like i did from you

                                  So settle, its the internet, I am glad you think about me so much 🙂 Don't get butthurt over this............

                                  my car is not my life, it is a hobby, just like posting on a public form to get some feathers ruffled is........ Its how i get off when your mom is not around 🙂

                                  In real life i am one of the nicest guys you will meet,

                                  I dont believe i have met you in real life but i picture you as a short fatty who got picked on his whole life.... no??

                                    Zach you are an asshole. LOL. That's probably what I like the most about ya.

                                    To everybody else..... Don't even get worked up over Zach here. Getting people razzed up on here gives him something to rub one off to.

                                          I would be quite happy with a 14.5 with the crx. That's my goal for 2008, then with boost 12's or bust..
