Threw a 15T JT front sprocket on the Xpect a couple of days ago, which I suspect is the best gearing overall for this bike. Not too traily, not too streety.
Took it for a ride today. Perfect. The 2.80 ratio gives you 16 MPH indicated at 6000 rpm in 1st, and has enough revs for using all the power in 5th. The stock 3.07 meant you were shifting really early in 1st and were way wound out in 5th at too-low a speed. The 2.47 was fine for city riding but bogged down on the hwy. Could not get much beyond 6K rpm. Now it will maintain 60 mph up a slight hill, and go 68 down that same hill. All indicated, not GPS, and with rider tucked low. ..........15.........17 42......2.80......2.47 46......3.07......2.71 stock 50......3.33......2.94
