mik60ish Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 What is the ideal sprocket combination for Yamaha TY 175, just removed a 60 rear fitted a 51. I have just got a 13 front 51 rear from Talon, so I left the old 13 front on for now. Is the 13x51 the most common combination? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulmcleod2003 Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Hello Mike, 13/51 is standard for TY's when sold new, best combo is 11/51 but you can get away with 12/51. see you on Sunday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the 13x51 the most common combination? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Mike The 51T rear will be fine but I suggest using a 12T front. Using 51/13 means that second is a bit too fast for most competition sections and first is a bit too fast for extremely tight stuff but OK for most sections. Using 51/12 is better for competition because it allows the choice of using first or second gears in sections and makes first nice and slow. The penalty is that a TY175 with 51/12 gearing will only do about 50-60km/h flat out so might be a little slow if you do much trail riding.
