Royal Enfield Meteor 350 - Larger Front Sprocket 

without remapping the console there is nothing to do, the Brazilians have already done it and the final speed goes up to 83mph

sadly, a bigger sprocket won't allow you to exceed a certain speed coz there's a built in electronic limiter in the engine. personally, i'm ok with 70 mph.

Never ever going to get higher top speed just with gearing alterations. The bikes are not rev limited !!! They are speed limited with the readings being taken from the ABS sensors. And even the removal of the sensors simply puts the engine into limp mode . Until someone starts selling replacement ECU units with the speed control function removed there is no way to get this engine to do what we all know it should.

Unfortunately a larger sprocket is a waste of time and money. The engine doesn’t produce enough torque to adequately pull the taller gearing. All that will be achieved is to load up the big end bearing.

I have changed the front sprocket on my Meteor as well as the air filter and it is indeed faster top end it is a rev limiter according to Hitchocks and no other limiter.

To be honest I think the bike lacks power to pull 5th anyhow so my idea would be a smaller front sprocket to improve acceleration. Looked around and doesn't seem to be much available though unfortunately

I could follow it but a novice wouldn't. More pictures are needed of individual parts and a better video. Much of what you were doing was obscured by your hands

Hello, have you done a test drive after you did the modification to the Meteor? Best regards

You might have seen my videos on the removal of the speed limiter and other mods. Can you explain why the sprocket change is a good idea and what it does, and is it worthwhile?

I find 4th gear top speed, 5th gear is more overdrive. In this respect adding taller gearing is not going to get you around the power limit.

Good explanation. I hope to do this when the weather warms up again

Some time ago, I put a one tooth larger front sprocket on a Honda Rebel 250 with the intent of making the engine run at lower revs at 55-60 MPH. I was happy with the result. I didn't notice any gain in top end, but that's not what I was after. Since you seem to have noticed a similar effect with the Meteor, I'm seriously considering a switch for my bike. Thanks for the video!

Good vid

Thanks for sharing. Hoping to find someone to make real forward controls for the Meteor.

So higher top end at the cost of lower acceleration and throttle response, also any improvement on the air filter side will be negated by the sprocket switch, seems counterintuitive for 3-4 mph

Very interesting 😊

I bought one of the first triumpph 790 scrambler. It was really over geared so i bought a rear sprocket 5 teeth larger and then it was perfect. If i could do that why couldn't triumph ?

Nice video thanks! I have seen after market 16T sprockets for sale but they don't have the rubber side spacer mountings on them. Are they necessary?

Any change did you notice on the mileage of the vehicle after sprocket change.. question from INDIA

any changes in fuel average ( miles per litter) after installing 16 teeth sprocket
