i was told originally that my bike came equipped with a 42 tooth rear sprocket so there for i was going to go to a 45 in back and go down 1 up front...
now i find out that i actully have a 45 tooth rear sprocket so my ? is this ,how much bigger can i go with out changing everything.
as of now i can power wheelie all the way thru 1st and part of 2nd but i want to be able to stand it up in second with power not clutch ( just seems like i run out of gear in 1st soon. will stand it up at like 15-20 and carry it to like 70)wanna just carry it in 2nd down the street but i do not want to loose all my interstate gearing suggestions are welcome

you can't clutch up in second and bring it up?

sprayedcivic

yes i can but its bad for the clutch i wanna be able to do it with just the power of the motor

s2k7

dude that clutch will hold you 20k still after. It's probably going to be hard with a 600 to bring it up all motor.

You're not going to be able to bring a 600 up in second without either bouncing it or clutching it. Sounds to me like you need a liter bike.

To change your gearing on the 600 to perform like you want it to would make the bike pretty much worthless for doing anything BUT wheelies. Regular riding would suck with that gearing.

CBR600 is right, you can't have it both ways with gearing, the best thing would be to just put some mild gearing like +2 on it, -1/+3 is really extreme, you'd be at like 10k rpm just cruising on the highway, annoying, bad gas mileage, and probably bad for your motor in the long term... clutching it up isn't really that bad for your clutch

i have a friend that can bring his bone stock 1995 cbr600 f3 up in 4th gear, i have trouble getting my modded new 1000 up in second, mods/gearing will help, but practice and the right technique will help way more

Trust me it is very easy. It all comes down to technique. The biggest thing when trying it is compression of the forks. Thry these steps
1- hold your rpm steady
2- close the throttle quickly (this causes the forks to compress)
3- slight pause, try not to let your rpm drop more than 500-1000 (less than a second) to allow the forks decompress
4- as the forks decompress (come back up) roll on the throttle quickly nice and smoth.

This methody is very controllable as to popping the clutch. And not hard on your tranny or clutch.

There are other factors than play in this to. Depending on your bike, what gear your in, your speed, and even the road, you might have to give a little tug on the bars as you roll on the throttle. Always remember the higher the gear the higher the rpm and speed will need to be to bring it up. (when not clutching it)

Bret you have to be kidding me. You and your bike should be power wheelieing in 3rd gear. It's just the technique, and I know you do twist that thing up. I can bring my bike up in 2nd at 4000 rpm no problem.

well i should say it will come up no problem, its just keeping it up is the problem for me... but thats my fault not the bike's

Throttle control, and I know you have that too. Especially the way I have seen you full tilt and hauling ass in the twisties Man your bike has got so much torque you can keep it at 10 o'clock with no problem all day with very little throttle input.

i can get it up in second i just want to be able to get it up in second with out clutch and just use the power i can stand it up all day in 1st with just power and second all day with clutch i just dont like using the clutch i wanna be able to use gas and not clutch to do it
