Default Re: Chain and Sprocket Compatibility - Pointy 650S L2

One tooth on front sprocket is worth 3 on the rear IMHO one tooth more or less on rear sprocket would hardly be noticeable. Standard naked Gladius and L7 is 15/46 with 112 chain and that makes a really nice ride, max speed limit in UK is 70mph, unless you do a lot of motorway miles use the lower gearing for more pep ( and fun ) on normal roads. The twin spark engines make more power but torque and power shifted up the rev range a bit.

Have you tried chainsandsprockets.co.uk they seem to have a good database ..

They only list a 45 tooth for the L2, however they confirm 108 link chain

I think that since they seem to be the same, even though nobody can actually confirm, I think I'll chance my arm and order a kit described for a K6. Worst case I think would be having to get a different sprocket.

Well I ended up ordering the kit described as for SV650S K6, in order to get the 44 tooth rear. Now fitted, I couldn't see any indication of incompatibility anywhere. I think they're the same for all faired pointies. Shame that's not documented anywhere.
