17 tooth fitted.   I love it.  Heeps more pull.  Speedo is only 10  klms out. It  was  5 klms before .no big deal.  Hit 240 easy and still pulling strong top speed may not be affected I'll try next weekend with gps.   Very happy

Did you need to shorten the chain, or did the adjusters loosen off enough?

[akhendy]

Good day I shortened the chain.  Is was a bit long when fitted  new 2yrears ago

Finally checked top speed with 17tooth sprocket.   Gps 238klph.   Speedo said 255klph.  Road was getting a bit rough I could have got maybe 2 or 3 more on a smoother Rd.
16klph out at those speeds 10klph out at 100.
Bloody happy with the 17tooth  sprocket. Pulls like a train  love it!!!

When you say "road was getting a bit bumpy" you actually mean the closed circuit track you tested it on to get those figures.     

[akhendy]
