Anybody perhaps got a 41 or 43 tooth sproket that'll fit a 97 carby 900? Would like to have a play around with the gearing a little, but dont want to spend out on a new sprocket to use with the used chain, and dont want to go whole hog buying new chain and sprox without knowing if id like the different setup :spin:

Cheers for any help :)

I've got a spare M600 rear, but I think it's 46T. Could be wheely fun to run that a while :)

you'd want a slightly longer chain for 46T

Andy,
I may be able to help you out in a short while as I am currently in the process of a bit of a refresh of my '97 900 and have a 41 tooth rear fitted which I shall be replacing with the same in a week or two.

In my opinion it really does sort out the overly high gearing without making it feel buzzy at motorway speeds and doesn't require a longer chain.
