dude you live in germany where they sell 17 tooth front sprockets at bmw dealers. hook me up!!
yeah that would be fantastic! Thanks!!
Thank you sir! I really appreciate your help and will keep you posted on how I make out.
Wemoto may be a good suplier, but they don't have a 17T sprocket for the G310GS, only 15T. At least according to their parts listing.
It depends on the rear sprocket as well. Pretty much power goes from the motor to the front sprocket which is smaller, this will spin several times before the rear sprocket makes a full rotation. Sometimes things are designed kind of poorly and its sad to say but its true. There is nothing wrong with the bike or the sprocket configuration but where I live it is dangerous to ride on the highway for more than 20 minutes because the bike will overheat. Getting a rear sprocket with a few less teeth with give me a high top speed and less torque because there is less of a difference in the size of the sprockets. I want to go a little farther and add a tooth to the front sprocket as well which will allow me to pass highway traffic with ease. Much better than buying radiators or an engine.
