I run 99% street, and graded dirt roads and occasional stream crossing when I'm not on pavement. It was much better with th 47, but I wanted more. So I got a 45 from CSC mainly because I wanted their bolt and spacer kit as well. It was better, but the bike still felt would tight in 5th. So I debated 43 or 42??? I decided 42, and it got installed yesterday. Yesterday was also the first time I remember using 3rd gear for more than a pass through from 2nd to 4th. 4th was better and 5th was great. Tops out about 70 indicated (63 actual, but I only have 500 miles). But the best news is it doesn't feel wound tight at those speeds. The tach first digit actually matches the speedo first digit now, although I assume the tach is correct. I should check it too. Bike has a mild re-jet otherwise stock.
How do you feel the torque with that sprocket?
I want to go faster on mine but i want to ocationally take some steep hills
can you still go up hill no problem?
