Was wanting to no what rear sprocket i should run so id just about be on the limiter in 5th gear iam currently running 16 41 and the shift light comes on at 10500 rpm just before the first timing block on the finish line id like that to be happening in 5th gear the engine is still stock, standard swing arm any help would be great thanks Troy...
Gen 1 or Gen 2?

Gen 1 with 17/43 was just hitting 4th at the end of the quarter for me.
I'm guessing you may need a 12/59 to hit 5th... LOL

I run 17/46 and go the finish line with shift light just on,i also set my shift at 10250 rpm to give me that little bit more time to shift lower gears,i do run extensions,strap,stock motor,best time9.66@143 mph& 1.54 60 ft.hope this helps.
1 tooth more in the back = about 250 revs more at the finish line
My son runs 16/48 on his Gen 1. Best time of 9.62, 140mph. Best 60ft is 1.49. Stock motor with strap, lowering links, 4-6 inch extensions and 4-1 pipe. Shift light set at 10,400

We started at 16/42 then 16/45 and ended up at 16/48 where Jas said we should have been in the first place.

Been talking to Pete about nitrous and flashing to give him the terminal speed and ET he deserves with the sixty foot times he does.
