  • Low End Torque 06 Katana

    Hey I'm looking for the best way to take a stock 06 Kat and get some more low end torque! I want the best bang for the buck whats the best way to get the torque to pop some wheelies. I wanna do some tricks just feel like the low end drags off the start. I can tell the power is there just isn't snappy enough to get'r up. Thanks for listening hope you got some help for me.

      Definitely rear sprocket change...consider a chain at the same time however otherwise your new sprocket will wear to fit your stretched chain in no time at all.

        Yeah I should have mentioned this as well. Whenever changing out a sprocket or a chain you should replace both sprockets and the chain. Well ok not sure if it applies to the sprockets so much when replacing a chain but definately when replacing a sprocket you should replace both the front and the rear sprocket and the chain.

          Forget wheelies on a Kat. It's too heavy. You'll blow out your fork seals bud.

            Go up to a 50 teeth rearsprocket going down 1 teeth in the front (MAX and only if you're doing the rearsprocket change.)

            I still don't know which moron did tell this first, he/she gets the price for telling the better BS.

            Try to think before you parrot somebody else.
