SV gearing & speeds
 

I found this excel sheet on VD which shows speeds based on bike gearing and sprocket config.

Gearing Sheet

Curently its setup for a 15/44 sprocket config on a SVSK3+, with the best info i could find.

49mph in 1st gear? I really shouldn't have worried when i broke my gear lever :)

44 teeth rear sprocket, sixth gear at 9k revs = 141mph? (Which would probably show at least 150 on the clock) I don't think so.


.

no thats max power. 141mph is indicated at max speed for the gear ie 10krpm. Stil not sure thats very accurate tho.

it is acurate, it is only a theoretical speeds at certian gearings

the default setings were for a pointy faired bike, based on what i could find.

my pointy's redline is at 11k - how fast is that? :shock:
just plugged in the figures - 155 :D

yep, but will the bike rev to the redline in 6th, or will it stop arround the max power revs etc...?

I dont know as mine stops well short of the redline when in 6th as im restricted.

of course it won't. Not unless its on its paddock stand and i don't feel like trying it. But the figures don't quite tie in with what i remember from running in. I couldn't go more than 5000rpm which was about 65 in top. Equates to 130 at 10k

great chart, tells me with 16/46 sprockets, the time I accidently downshifted into 1st @ 70mph, I hit 14,000rpm

grat link , cheers for that

the tables is bang on.

dont forget these are the speeds that can be achieved without and outside intervention, ie friction and wind resistance, just cos the gear box will allow 141 doesnt mean it can be achieved in the real world.

i had my bog standard sv dyno'd at a max speed of 138mph at the rev limiter in 6th, so the table is not along way out only aroun 1.5%.

on the road 125-130mph is more realistic.
