I'm with sv650nutter149. Mine's stock & I don't see the point in changing it just yet. Acelleration & top speed on the K6 SVS seems good enough for my riding ability right now.
Might also be worth noting that I too have had 135mph out of my bike, naturally this was on a closed runway officer! However, I was only around 9k rpm in 6th, so I could probably squeeze more out of her. |

How many links do you need to run a 47 tooth sprocket?

Anyhoo, let me get this stright, you have gone 2 up on the rear, and 1 down on the front, and you are getting135mph...hmmm The maths just dont do it, or your speedo is immensley incorrect! I used to run a 14t front, but on motorways it was horrible, so went back to std gearing which is fine for me thank ewe

Changing sprockets messes the speedo up and I don't see the point tbh. You're going to out accelerate 95% of anything on the road with a stock setup and why lose top end? It gets to 110 quick enough imo, beyond that is just for laughs.
Also, you don't need massive sprockets for wheelieing. But it does help if you want to stop abusing your clutch.
