front sprocket part number question

I guess staying with standard ratio 15/48 is probably the best compromise. Unless you do extensive highway riding then lower ratio like 17/47 may help. High extreme ratio like 13/53 is for moto gymkhana wannabes :-)

I'm happy just tootling away, I like the odd blast but nothing gp style :angel :rolleyes

I may be wrong I am laymen too just too much nerd I guess LOL

But your nerdiness will help others :lol

You said earlier about a lower rear sprocket by 1, would you also increase the front by 1 or leave that at 15?

Why not 16/47 seems good combination in fact here is nice article from a guy the has chosen exactly that combo.

According to gear commander this will give you 8% decrease in RPMs and about 10 mph more top speed.
