Sprocket swap for XMoto

Rusty_Brown · 12-07-2008, 01:00 PM

Has anyone swapped their rear sprocket? This one came with a 60 tooth rear and man it limits the top speed! Very quick though! I want to replace it with maybe a 42 tooth.

Also, is there a good process for removing links from the chain? I don't know if it requires a special tool, etc.

Hey Rusty:
I deleted your identical post in the dirt forum. Usually 1 post is all you'll need.

Most people have swapped their sprockets. 60 teeth does seem very high. I used a 17/46 combo for street.

For dirt, and where to get your sprocket, I'm sure others will help out.

How many teeth on your counter sprocket?

Hey Rusty,

That is a nice bike. I brought in two of them for samples this last summer and I am very happy with what xMotos makes. Probably one of the best dirt bikes out of China in my opinion and I have looked at a lot of them. I spent 3 months over there last year just shopping for products.

Anyway, I am not sure if I have the right sprocket for you in stock but I can check if you don't mind buying from Canada.

And for shortening the chain, there is a chain breaker tool that you can buy (no I don't have them for sale) and they work fairly well and they are not too expensive. Or you can grind the pins down and then use a punch to tap them out.

Cheers,

Art
