Hi,
I'm in the market too for a set of sprockets + chain .. been visiting gear commander often lately thinking 47/17 might be just right for my riding ..
Just out of curiosity I thought I'd ask you why did you decide for a 45/15 setup? according to gear commander there's not much to gain from going down 2 teeth on the rear.. or is there?Comment

17 won't fit, 16 will with some modifications."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you when I called you stupid. I thought you already knew..."

Hi,
17 won't fit on a 2000 Kat? and what kind of modifications do you mean?
Could you be a bit more specific please?
thanks

One of the bolts that hold the cover to the case has a mounting post on the case and cover that will need to be removed, and possibly a second to allow the chain to clear, it might also hit the clutch push rod and that can't be modified
It's better to stay with the 15 and change the rear.http://www.7thgeardesigns.com

you will have to remove some materiel from the sprocket cover, for clearance."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you when I called you stupid. I thought you already knew..."

45/15 is the stock gearing for my bike.1999 Suzuki Katana 750FComment

Thanks for the replies!
So I guess I'll stick to 15/47 then .. I won't gain much by going 45 on the rear, rpms would only drop by 300 or so .. not worth it.
@raidinmd: sorry, didn't notice you have a 750Comment

so you are getting a aluminum rear ?Comment

stock gears are the best unless you drop one up ft and gain pull aways and loose some on topComment

true, however my aim was to reduce rpms a bit for a quieter ride while cruising.Comment
