New member with gearing questions - 6/17/2007 1:24:26 PM    j0n   Posts: 12 Joined: 6/17/2007 Status: offline Hey all, new member here with an '04 CBR1000rr. It's my second bike with my first being an '03 CBR600F4i. I bought the new one at a dealership and they were unsure as to what kind of sprockets it has. I know it has some sort of sprockets since the speedometer is WAY off. My question is can I recalibrate the speedometer to accomodate for the aftermarket gearing? Also, can someone tell me how many teeth stock sprockets have so i can figure out what's on the bike? Finally, if there's no way to change the speedo, is anyone willing to trade me their stock sprockets for my aftermarket ones? Thanks alot and i look forward to your responses! _____________________________ Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, beer in one hand, Jack Daniels in the other, body thoroughly worn out and bleeding, while screaming Post #: 1
