martin 305 Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 Hi there just got a 06 pro 250 and its runing 10 tooth front and 42 rear , I am a novice rider and am not sure if it would calm it a bit if i changed to 11 front, most sections i do in 1st /2nd i have fitted a slow action throttle . I would be glad of any help you may have . many thanks martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coxy Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 a started with an 11 tooth sprocket on the front and then dropped it down to a 10 on the front and i think it is alot better, the 11 tooth sprocket makes the bike quicker and gives you less time to think about what you are doing and stuff. if anything i would say try a 9 tooth sprocket if you want to calm it down even more, from what i have been told using a 9 on the front makes the bike very slow to accelerate and stuff so it will calm it down.

Thanks for your advice i will pop in to talon and get a 9 tooth and see how it goes. Do i need to increase the no of teeth on the rear or decrease to calm further ?

coxy Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 to gear it down even more you will want to increase the amount of teeth you have on the rear, decreasing will have the opposite effect and make it quicker again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
