Hi, I'm fairly new. 1999 GSX-600
So I've put about 1500 miles on the katana already this year after buying it in february and so far I love the bike. My only gripes are that I think the gearing a little too short and that my speedometer is off by about 10mph. The reason for this sprocket question is that I'll be doing mostly long (30-40m) highway commutes. I get 45mpg puting around town (which is awesome) and a little more with highway riding mixed in.
Questions:
) What are the OEM Sprocket sizes?
) What size sprockets will make my RPM's drop from ~7k at ~70mph?
) How can I fix my speedometer problem? (EX: 80mph = ~70 actual)
Thank you for any help gurus!
