Dale Lineweaver advises that a good street setup for my 05 fe 650 would be one where the bike will cruise at between 4000 and 5000rpm. If I understand Gearing Commander: Motorcycle Speed, RPM, Chain & Sprockets Calculator correctly, I could pair my 15t front with a 40t rear on a 140/80 18" rear...
with the 1996-2000 bikes unable to get a lower cam chain sprocket I'm just checking but I'm sure that the Husky lower one from prior to 1996 will fit? later than this they went to the 219 chain the same as I use in my race cam chain and sprocket set-up.
15/30 then becomes 17/34 or 18/36 but...
Just wondering what you guys think is the best size sprocket to use on a 450 supermoto, currently got a 44tooth and think it would be better with a smaller one to make it abit better top end
Just got an 09 FE450 and plan on using it more as a dual sport bike so I want to prevent any problems from pavement riding. So far the pavement is about 10% or less of each ride. Not sure if it was my expectation of an improvement/difference or a real change......but when I first rode the bike...
Brought a new cam sprocket to replace my worn aluminum one, new one is steel + looks quite different.
Is this the correct part? can I fit it straight on?
Cheers

I have a 15 in the front and a 41 in the back. Iv somewhat topped out at about 85mph but I didn't like how high the rpms were. What is a good set for a higher top speed, what would happen to my low end speed, and what is the redline rpm on this bike?

I thought a 15t should fit, but it's hitting the swingarm protector (not sure what it's called).
Should I cut the rubber away? In the pic, it looks like the previous owner cut part of it off, but if make enough room for the 15t, I think...
Looking for a 15t, I mistakenly bought an Ironman (I like that brand- tough sprockets), but found that KTM sprockets don't fit.
Renthal's website says a 292-520-15GP fits an 08 'berg, but resellers list that model for KTM's, so I'm guessing it won't fit. (That's how I made the mistake with the...

Hello,
I have a problem with front chain sprocket, I tighten the bolt as much as I can but the washer that is under the bolt is turning around:

Maybe someone know what is wrong?
Best regards,

I've seen a couple of links to these new fangled Kush sprockets. Basically they claim to do the same as a cush drive and it's a helluva lot cheaper at about $100.

i've trawled the thread for info on this for a 2012 fe570 but get mixed opinions and results.
can anyone confirm the largest front sprocket possible for the fe570? i know the 14 tooth is easy, but wondering if a 15 tooth is possible, and if so does the chain guard need to be removed or modified...
Hi, I just brought home my first 'Berg and I'm looking so much forward to start riding it :)
I need a new set of sprockets and a new chain.
The old sprocket in the front has 14 teeth and the old rear sprocket has 42 teeth.
I see there are much more rear sprockets with 47-52 teeth than 42 teeth...
hi i was just curious, does anyone know if the later model front sprocket fits the 07-08 and older bikes ?
hard to find a front sprocket for them or a 2t husky?
cheers
Hi I have been using a oem 48 tooth rear wheel sprocket on 2008 berg. I noticed cracks in it today from middle of a tooth down. By the time I got back to trailer another crack about 1/3 of the way around the sprocket had appeared. The second crack may have been caused by the flex from the...
Hi All, I tried to get the head off my 06FE550 over the weekend and in a senior moment tried undoing the sprocket from the camshaft to endeavor to get the cam chain off without cutting it, I have since been told by the dealer I have to replace the camchain even though it has only done 35 hours...
i would like to start commuting on my 2010 fs570 most of the time i am in a 60kph zone, any idea what sprocket set up i should go? atm with stock set up its not to good - at 60kph revs a bit high (using to much fuel) in 4th but 5th gear is stretch at 60kph.
I've just looked at the rear sprocket size on my fs 650 to fin it's a 44t hence the mad wheelies everywhere! With no top end.
I believe 40 teeth is stand would you recommend putting it back to 40t or maybe a 42t compromise..?
I use in on the road and live in the countryside so best of both...
