  • Speedo/RPM readings

    After I get my 15-50 sprockets installed, how much if any will the readings be off? It reads of the front wheel so it should stay correct right?

      Awesome....thank you. I thought maybe I would have to get a speedo healer to read the correct RPM's and speed.

            +1, both of my kat's tend to overestimate speed by ~10% lol

              Correct.

              Since you will be geared lower your RPM will be higher for a given speed but your speedometer will continue to read exactly as it had before

                Thanks guys...I dont really pay attention to speedometer anyways...Out here you kind of just follow the speed on the freeway what ever that is......It would be unsafe to go slower.
