Changing the front sprocket.

Lol its a $25k car brand new. That was a bit off topic though my apologies.

The 13T is a great upgrade no doubt!

The Honda CRV is as fast as a stock 250!

I'm thinking the sprocket should remedy that.

completely stock black beauty will beat your tin box,
as you make claim, i choose circuit, which will be
from waverley court house to coogee beach,
at around 10 mid morning..

'fastest' is relative, which in this typical real
road circuit includes traffic lights and traffic..
my area theres heaps of bmws, audis, supercharged
mercedes etc, which make statements as they sit
waiting in the traffic with the other tin boxes,
as we slip bye, my motorcycle and me...

I have changed my front sprocket to a 13t and I have installed the speedodrd from 12'Oclock lab.

First of all, my stock bike speedo was showing 7% faster then what I was really going and it pissed me off. With the 13t, it was now showing about -6%. For me, the speedo fixer was a no brainer.

As for the 13t sprocket, it gave a completely different caracter to the bike. It accelerates much quicker, I can modulate my speed in 6th and I have more power to pass cars safely. as for the top speed, it is now about 150is km/h which is now easily atainable and regarding the fuel economy, it should have drop a tiny bit but I haven't noticed anything. It might even be better now since I can now cruise a one geer up for 50-70 km/h speeds.

My 2 cents is that this bike was tuned for maximum fuel economy, polution control etc etc etc. The 13t sprocket is the best 50$ I've ever spent!

This reminds me of that song by Don Henley (I forget the name of it), which has the lyrics "... and all the jerkoff's in their fancy cars...". lol.

How was the install of the speedodrd ? I'm looking into getting a 13T front sprocket and was wondering how easy or difficult installing the new speedodrd from 12'Oclock labs woul.
