hey guys
I'm converting my 11 fe390 to supermoto,just wondering what gearing people are using that have done this swap.
It will be used for road use and not track
If you like to play/pull wheelies, etc, start with 14-42 with the 390. If you find yourself running out of top end on the freewway, go to a 40.
I ran 14-42 on my FS450 for racing...plenty of power off the bottom, and plenty of speed up top.
Had a 40 so got a 14 aswell and it seems too long geared for me so gonna get a 42 and a 44 to try out.
First time on it was last night and drove ok but definitely need shorter for my riding style. Have to sort suspension too
For road fun get a bigger bore bike if your going to do work to the bike. The 450 and 570 are so much more fun on the road the 390 feels like a scooter.
