Re: [St] More on Sprocket set up

Kevin, 

I believe 19 is stock for your bike, or possible 1+.
My 02 RS came with a 19. I changed to an 18, gave the
bike more snap, if it changed the handleing or ride
height at all, it was for the positive. Adding one in
back would lower your ratio further and cancel any
handling effects...
