Hello! I am using the stock 44T sprocket that came with my 2-stroke kit. I cruise at around 20mph and can hit 27 at high revs. While this is great, I am a lighter rider, can do away with some of the torque, and would like more speed (~27 cruise and +30 top speed). I guess this means I need to get a smaller sprocket.
Additionally, I would also love to get rid of the chain tensioner as this seem to add friction. Any recommendations on the sprocket size that I should get (36, 32, 30T)? And, do you know at what sprocket size will there be no need of a chain tensioner? Also, can I use my old bolts and rubber J clamps for a smaller sprocket or do I have to buy a specific rubber J clamps for the smaller sprocket?
I read a lot of people happy at 36T and 40T. I saw one guy say that he was able to do away with the chain tensioner at 30T. But, I am wondering if that is also possible at 36T. :helmet:
Sorry for the horrendous English...
