World of Sprockets!

I want to alter the gearing ratio of an r15 for better acceleration. The r15's stock sprocket is 14 front, and 42 rear. I'm thinking about increasing the no of teeths of the rear sprocket.How big a sprocket can I install? I need a top end of 120-110.

Swap the front sprocket with 13-tooth sprocket of the RTR. Albeit,acceleration will improve at the cost of top-end.Nonetheless,you would manage to get to speeds of 120-125 easily..Originally posted by Parth View PostI want to alter the gearing ratio of an r15 for better acceleration.

@ Parth..
Both 160 and 180 have the same front sprocket i.e 13-toothed.So,you can go for either one..
Would it be a direct fit? Well,can't comment! You need to wait for the xbhpians that have carried these kind of mods in the past.They'd be knowing much better on this subject..So please,start shouting for help as I think people hardly visit this thread...
Good luck with the mods!

hey bro to increase the top speed ,you need tall gears. tall gearing can be achieved by reducing no. of teeth on the rear sprocket or increasing the size of gearbox sprocket.this will increase the speed in each gearOriginally posted by pawanpandit View Postmy discover has stock sprockets of 14/42. i need to increase top end and reduce vibrations. please help me guys which would be a direct fit?

you can increase teeth in the rear sprocket .increment should not be more than three 3 teeth or you can decrease 1 teeth in front sprocket .for the final drive ratios ....divide reduced no. of teeth by original ones .this holds when you are changing front sprocketsOriginally posted by Parth View PostI want to alter the gearing ratio of an r15 for better acceleration.

Umm.............Sprocket Masters I need help here,
The stock setting is 13/44.........In order to find more Top end without sacrificing much torque,I have opted two custom settings,
1.13/42
2.14/44
The bike in question makes peak power at 8500 rpms and peak torque at 8250 rpms.
So which setting would provide the better of both worlds and by how much the performance would differ from stock.????

13/42 suits your needs as you want little increment in top speed and please mention top speed you are getting with your current settings so that new top speed cam be calculatedOriginally posted by MACH50 View PostUmm.............Sprocket Masters I need help here,

if you select 14/44 then you will get more top end than 13/42 setup but acc. will decrease
