SV HPT Gearing?

[gkotlin]

Anyone have any idea what sprockets I need to bring?  I haven't been to HPT in years and when i did, it was on a 600.

HPT SV gearing:  15/47 or 15/48

15/48 is short. I would say closer to 15/45 it has long straights. I am running 16/45 and might try out 16/43 there on my superbike

Good Luck

I always ran 15/45, and 15/46 with a headwind on the straight.  I've run as fast as 1:47 with the 15/45 combo, but you have got to be good out of the last corner to make it work.

Isn't there always a head wind on the front straight?  ;-)

Like I said, 15/46:)

Oh yeah, 16/45 or 43 is way too tall for HPT.  That might work at Road America, and I would think it would take a pretty strong motor to pull it.

raven has a pretty strong motor... way too tall for stock or super sport

Like i said 15/45 or so for a stock engine.

Thanks.  Thats about what I was figuring.  As for the 16/4* combo.  I've run it on a stock motor at Mid-Ohio and Road America.  15/46 is what I ended up running I believe.

Thanks Jack - you were spot on.

16-45 was perfect on my first gen, put me at 9100rpms at the top of alpha
