new sprocket

Post by Jim Hyman » Sun Sep 17, 2000 9:48 pm

Luke, P.B.I. makes a 16 tooth sprocket for the KLR650 and Fred sells them. I use a 16T for road riding only, 14T for off road. The 16T changes the engine rpm by about 7%, 5K rpm = 80 mph. As a side benefit, chain life will be increased somewhat by using the larger front sprocket. Professor A9 Federal Way, WA. [USA] +++++++++++++++++++++++ --- , "Luke " wrote:
