Hi Folks,
I am a new member who has read that there is a 13 tooth
countersprocket available for the early year 650's in the FAQ section.
It is my understanding that the early 650's used the same
countersprocket as the earlier 600's, so I would ask if anyone is
aware of the part number for that c-sprocket or for another model
which fits my '86 KLR? My preference would always be to install a
larger rear sprocket and longer chain but that seems to be even more
difficult to find, so I am inclined in this direction, at least for a
temporary fix, to overcome the factory "airplane gearing".
Any info on alternative larger rear sprockets (stock 43 teeth)would
also be greatly appreciated. I have machining capabilities in house
if a blank center sprocket of around 50 teeth or so was available.
Thanks in advance,
Howard

'86 klr-600 13 tooth countersprocket?
A bit off your question, but just be aware of clearance issues with
the tire and swingarm if you go much past a 14t front. I was
pondering a 14/47 as I like the 14t a lot and found that one person
that switched to 14/47 (dooden maybe?) just barely had 1/8" of tread
to swingarm clearance after the change...it also needed a 110 link
chain.

:-) I don't know about Dooden, but I'm running that combination.
With the
106 link chain, it was barely clearing the swingarm. I went to a 110
tooth
and it located back in the center of the adjustment now.
Jake at Sagebrush Machine said he had a 13T countershaft sprocket
available,
but since it was so small in diameter, you had to install an "E" clip
to
retain it instead of the bolts splined clip. I thought about what
would
happen at speed if the clip came off and went with a 14T from Fred at
Arrowhead.
I purchased the 47T rear sprocket from www.throttlehead.com. It's
made by
JT Sprockets. So far, it's working fine, although it's a rare
weekend that
I put over 200mi on the bike, unlike some of the listers that it
would be
less than a days ride.

14/45 is what I had on , tried 15/45, then 14/45 and have settled on
14/43 for now.
14/45 was just about right for playing in the woods, but getting there
required too many rev's.
