Hi all

I found out my gen 3 has a -1 (16T) front sprocket yesterday.

OE 45T at rear.

Just wondering how does this fair up. Worried it'll be a wheelie machine.

I've not ridden it yet. Only purchased few weeks ago and was going to wait until March really.

Am I better off switching back to OE 17T

Have Brands and Portimao booked for coming months.

Anyone know how much top speed this would knock off too out of interest?
 
16-45 will be fine, might want to wheelie in 2nd but the throttle goes both ways.
I run 16/44 and racers run 16/43.
You could take a 43 or 44 with you to stretch the wheelbase and reduce the flightiness.

Cheers Alex, will use Brands as the indicator on whether to make a change then before big euro trip
