So, if I bought a 43 tooth rear sprocket, I could toy with...
a 16/17 front, to have a 9/11% longer ratio (2,6895/2,529),
plus
a 14 tooth, to have the original ratio (3,07)
a 13 tooth for a traffic light scorcher bobber (3.30)
Correct?
You got the idea!!! The stock belt is 2.96. The 17 gives you a 14.5% change. That is what I run mostley and it works great for my 150 pound butt. You can use the 13 and the chain still has room to drop down on the sprocket, without hitting the 40mm spacer, close, but chain will not hit spacer and jump off front sprocket. You can see this in the pic in the tech document section. I have the 13 tooth I cut out sitting on top of chain. Have fun playing around, I am.
