Re: Sprockets



James, thanks for un-Locking the mystery surrounding the sprocket change.  
Interesting that Triumph went to a 19T front on the 2000 STs;  I assume we 
know that both the '99s and '00s have 43T rears.  This ratio change 
definately points to a more touring orientated machine and will yield less 
'snap.'  So I guess its official, the old red and black ones are faster than 
the new blue ones.  I contemplated going down to a 17T on my '99, but now 
that change would be 2 teeth down and sounds a bit more dramatic.  I don't 
think the '00s will pull redline in 6th, has anyone done it?  Can the '99 hit 
redline in top gear?  Interesting...
