Hello all.
Standard FZ8n sprocket setup is 16 front 46 rear.
Has anybody tinkered with different sprockets?
Im looking to increase fuel efficiency and i understand that either adding teeth to the front or removing teeth from the rear is the way to reduce the ratio. This lowers acceleration / torque which you gain back top end.
My concern is if i add one tooth to the front and remove one from the rear how will this effect the number of links required in the chain?
I have a feeling i may have to adjust the wheelbase adjuster
