What's the consensus on the effect the shorter wheelbase has on the pre 2012? Good? Bad? Indifferent?

And is a 45 tooth the limit for the rear on the standard chain?
 
Don't think I'm good enough to notice
Theoretically every time you adjust a chain that's stretched the length is increasing
 
done mine wheelies through 4th 157mph u will loose 3mph

also did silverstone again and tried to get the front end to slip out then the rear but nothing this time so must be the wheelbase???
 
I,ve also got 46 tooth Rear Sprocket , as mentioned on another post going from 44 to 46 is less of a change than 1 less on the front . No problem with standard chain. And is a chick mod ;D
