SV650S sprocket size?

[Monty69]

I have recently bought a '06 SV650s, great bike for everything, much better than my cbr600f i had before. Fitted with full, two bros racing exhaust system and high flow filter. I love the punchy vtwin power, but the top end gearing seems a little short for a bike that has such strong acceleration. Ill go to over take a line of cars or blast between corners out in the hills, and within seconds im redlining 6th gear at 217kmh... The guy i bought it off had just fitted new chain and sprockets and I know that the naked sv has different sprocket size to give it shorter gearing, maybe he orderd a set of chain and sprockets for an "SV" not a "SVS"? Any 1 know what the sizes are for sv and for svs? Or any1 got a naked sv650? Can you please go down the motorway on it and tell me your top speed at 10,500rpm....

Simply go out count the teeth on your sprocket then log onto ronayer.com and search bits for your bike,personally i cant see the problem all things considered,i went down 2 teeth on the rear on my TL years back and its perfect.

Although the police wouldnt agree, it is relatively safe to do higher speeds in the right place, at the right time... On a vehicle designed for that purpose....

Ill stick with the sprocket as is untill it wears out. Im starting to get the hang of clutchn up wheelies now and the shorter gearing probly helps

Half the reason I say that is because I ride a SV650N, K&N, full yoshi, racetech front end and zx10 rear shock but even at the mid hundies she's a hand full. That maybe just me tho'. I ride dirt and had a motard so I like the twisty stuff more I guess...
