GT550 Change of front sprocket size

[barney01]

Just changed my chain and sprockets it was well overdue! I've been meaning to get around to it for quite a while
So ordered a DID chain and JT sprockets. I had a 15 tooth front which made the bike a little more 'spirited' under acceleration but this time i fitted a 16 tooth which is the standard together with 40 tooth rear. Quite a noticeable change in performance but very happy with the result. Next time may try a different variation.
Just wanted to point out that you can use different sprockets to change the performance of your bike

Your earlier sprockets are better for annoying modern bikes though Barney. When do you need over 100mph nowadays?
Fuel consumption will be a tad better though.

unless something has changed you don't need to even think about speeding in north wales or doing anything on a bike everyone I know stopped going

Oh yes I would encourage all visitors to this area to be very careful. Went to a bikers meet before Christmas and was told the local plod had a camera pointing towards the road in a horsebox in a field!
