What it the OEM tooth count on the front and rear gears of the drive system. IDK what the front one is on mine as I have not removed the cover yet, but the rear reads 43 and my speedo is greatly off over 90mph. It said I was doing 143mph going across the bridge and I couldn't have been doing over 110mph.
Thank you,

Stock should be 17/43. Sounds like you may have a 16T front. Depending on the type of sprocket you may be able to see what it is by removing the speed sensor and looking inside. if not you'll have to pull the cover and count teeth.:cheers

Thanks guys. Exactly what I needed to know. The sites state 17f, 45R. I see 43 stamped on the rear. Now I just need to take off the cover and see the front. -1f, -2R accomplishes faster take off, lower top? T/F? I've heard -1f, +2R for better take off, but not this.
My last was a 1K so neither was an issue, but personally I think I would like to go to OEM, or some variation of it to correct the speedo issue and still keep a little performance on take off since it is a middle weight.
