Re: [ST] Ideas on Chain and Sprocket sources and prices please



I am running a 17/43, and love it. I ride hard through twisties through out upstate NY and Eastern/mid PA every sunday, and have no probs with the revs in transport mode on the slabs. It runs about 5400rpm at 70ish mph, which is the average slab speed for me. No problems with that speed. Once you get to 95ish, it gets a bit buzzy, but I'm used to it from my trackbike staying from 9-13k regularly. Wheelies

which is probably the best compromise. Thing is, I try to avoid the highway, 
so perhaps a bit of extra pep from another 2 teeth in the rear will be fun. 
I think they switch from an 18 to a 19 in 2000.
