    2 down in the front? So a 13t? Good luck with chain life, IF the chain doesn't sit on the sprocket hub.
    90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.

      I did 1 down in the front (which I was iffy about) and 3 up in the back. Do you like doing wheelie's on accident?

        I installed a 49 vortex in the rear 2 yrs ago sacrificed some top end for some lower / midrange grunt. I like it

                i went down 1 up front and up 3 out back and always loved the extra grunt but it was aggravating riding 70 at like 6 grand on the tack.

                  i just installed a +2 on the back, wasnt able to install a -1 on the front due to the chain washers not allowing the chain to sit properly on the sprocket
