Yeah, I run a 15/44 at SP and VIR..was thinking more like a 42 rear at Daytona, but never been, so was asking.

wow...16/43.  One up in the front over stock and one down in the rear over stock.  So basically a 15/41, but I guess the 16/43 I could use the same chain.

stock motor will not pull a 16/43. I ran 16/44 with a 90 hp motor. 15/43 is what you will end up with.

old course + supersport sv = 16/43. If your running up front with the experts. You should be able to use the same chain.

Interesting I know three guys that were running 16/44 on newer model and couldn't pull that gearing. My bike on the dyno tached out with 16/44 was 154 mph, so if you running 16/43 on a stock motor I'm impressed. Where can I get one?

16/43 for sure! Most all top expert guys ran this setup on are SS bikes. I ran 15/42 once to but depends on wind and setting up draft.

Fisher will be there with kawasaki to show off some of the custom sportbikes that he built. I'll be there to run the moto st event but probably not any ccs stuff.

Back to the topic. I looked back through the notes from the last 11 race events that I attended there and found that 16/44 was the gearing that I used the most often. The last two times on my 03 sv supersport I ran 16/43 because my bike made max hp @ 9500rpm and that is what I would pull with 16/43.
