[QUOTE="TexKDX, post: 109240, member: 16276"] Yarbo - I run the stock 14/52 setup and am wanting a combo that makes 3rd gear more usable in the tight stuff. I just switched to a shorter rear tire, so I'm withholding judgement until I get to try the new skin. The MT44 Pirelli is a tall tire. I suspect the M12 will change the response in 3rd some. A 13 is pretty small on the front and will wear quicker than the 14, plus puts more wear on the sliders. At the same time, swapping the rear is a pain in comparison to swapping the front if you ride in different conditions. The 54 may wear the chain guide as well. Currently I'm leaning towards a Sidewinder stainless rear sprocket in a 52 and a 13 and 14 for the front. When conditions are real tight, the 14 makes 1st gear a little tall and 3rd a little too low in the RPM range. If conditions are more open, then the 14 works great. The 80 MPH top end is overkill for anything I do. Keep in mind this is on a 300, which has different internal ratios than your bike. YMMV. [/QUOTE]
