So I ordered a new sprocket kit from "Sprocket Center" They don't have the stock gearing in stock, so I ordered a 44 rear and the stock 16 up front. So my question is will this gearing cause me any problems?? I.E. speedometer sensor... Anyone else running this setup? Any problems?
Thanks.
There is no physical harm that can be done but your speedo will be thrown off even more than it already is which is about 5-7 mph over from the factory. In addition to this your odometer will register a higher than actual mileage and your RPM's will be higher at highway cruising speeed. The good news is that you'll get quicker acceleration in the lower gears.
One more thing, you will lose a few mph from your top speed. I'm sure this is very important to you since you probably spend the majority of your time going more than 130mph :laughing6-hehe:

Your Speedo will never know, so you'll still think you can that fast (or faster). I run a 15/45 setup and my speedo is off by about 20% eg. Speedo = 43, Actual =35; Speedo = 100, Actual = 80. but the 15t front makes most of the difference with a 44t rear you'll prob never notice it.
