My sprocket setup is just another but i think i've seriously lost top end. But now all the work has been done on the sm i can start with getting tuned. 32mm delorto carb. And get that cylinder sent away for a tune up.

i meandt if you worked the wheels to fit on the bike with bushings and so on.... like the wheel needes some spacers to fit right? did you changed axels?

i ride 16-49 and its a bit short... you shouldnt use 12, thats very small for the bike :S ever with a bigger sprocket is very small

 The Rear brake carrier was machined down by a few mill to bring the wheel in line with the front. Then spacers made up accordingly.

 

And don't have a choice mate. Biggest size sprocket for the rear is 46. Anything bigger on the fron causes serious strain on the motor. It won't pull in 6th with anything bigger than what is on at the moment.

 

Get more power out of the engine is my only way forward at the mo. Once it's pushing more BHP I can adjust the sprocket setup to compensate.

 The amount of teeth on the sprocket has nothing to do with the gear ratio as enny said. Its the fact that bigger and smaller sprockets affect the ratio and larger sprockets just so happen to need more teeth. That said 46 teeth on an aprilia rs125 is not the same size sprocket as 46 teeth on a yamaha dt125. Different size wheels will mean completely different size sprockets. 

 

 

Do you really think i got this far into my project to get stumped by gear ratios.

i allso changed to 520 and my reason is 428 is like butter after 2 or 3 wheelie and you need to adjust the chain a notch.

then after 2 months its new chain and sprocket time with 520 its so much stronger

i really dont think that dts overthere are different then here.... my bike has 420 pitch out of the factory. i do wheelies aswell but maybe you have the gear relation short... whats your transmission?

 

i have the same chain and sproket for like 2 years lol, riding almost every day...

2 years on a 420. Imagine what you'll get out of 520.

NORFE reckons they stretch like a rubber band though. I beg to differ but my bike has bugger all power.

Fck. My dt must be massively under powered. I don't think i could flip it. Far too heavy!

I'm finding it a bit annoying at the mo. I was riding with my brother today and nobody challenged me to a race. Instead only my brother. So frustrating. To be fair i would have lost miserably since he only just made it and his is much faster than my dt. But stillfrustrating
