Not sure if it makes a difference but I have a Gsxr real wheel with 520 setup. I run 14 front and 46 back. It's plenty strong out of corners and i'm almost hitting the rev limiter at the end of the front straight when I get a good run out of the 11 and all the way down the front straight. I found that the when I still had the stock rear wheel with stock gearing that I was always bogging out of corners but then again the SV was still very new to me and I hadn't ridden a V-Twin before so I wasn't used to the powerband.

14-46....of course you have good drive out of corners.
You should be wide open through last corner, and with 14-46, should be maxed out coming out of that corner, not by the end of the straight. Has nothing to do with what rear wheel you are running.
run 15-44 or 45.

Hmmm max out in 6th coming out of last corner??? Maybe i'm mistaken with front sprocket :headscratch: I know for sure the rear is a 46T. Now you got me thinking. I'm about to order a new set since my rear sprocket is showing some wear and figured I'd just swap it all out as a set so that I don't have to remember when was the last time I changed the front sprocket and or the chain.
Another project for this weekend. I'll be at NJMP on 9/22-23 and maybe 24th depending on $$$

See you there. I'll have Boose in tow also. She is amped up to hit Thunderbolt.:vroom:
I went ahead and ordered a 44 and a 45 to mess around with.
I need to go back to 45T at NHMS anyways.

my guess is you are running 15 front.
stock gearing 15/45 works very well just about everywhere.

Adam, Lou, 15/45 works just fine at Thunderbolt. You guys will be fine.
You guys are gonna love it. We'll have to turn some laps together

I'm sure Lou will have a qstarz or seven lying around
Knowing those two, I'll bet I tow them down into the sub 1:40's by the end of the two day event. :naughty:

We'll definitely have to run some laps!
Yeah, like OG said...I'll be running a timer and selling/renting them too, so I'll have plenty of times to report and can share some data for viewing in the free version of QRacing if anyone wants it.
