This suspension has more travel than my K5. We have to run the chain towards 30 on the rear stand to have proper slack while riding. I had 25mm on the rear stand and that's not enough. It gets tight. Been playing with this new chain tension for two days now. I went back and forth. About to put more slack again. At least now we know

Would you recommend the EK 3D 520 GP for street riding for a 1000cc or the EK 3D 520 z

@sportbiketrackgear 5 лет назад

The Z is a little heavier so it will stretch less and should last longer in theory. I have the GP on my bike and it worked great all year long on the track, very little stretch. If the additional .3 lbs per 100 links is not important to you go with the Z. - Van

@rrrkev 5 лет назад

Nice video Brian. OK we know the 520 stuff is lighter , but if a wee bit of weight is not a big deal, drop 1 tooth off the rear will give basically the same gearing and lengthen the wheelbase a touch .

@sportbiketrackgear 5 лет назад

There is more to it than just a bit of weight. With 520 you will typically have more gearing options if you are using the bike on the track. The OEM chain gets the job done but it is not very pretty. A high quality chain will typically reduce friction which will buy you a little more power. End of the day none of these are really earth shattering, that said they do add up over a full build. - Van

@sportbiketrackgear 2 года назад

Make sure the front sprocket is installed so the spacing from the output shaft to the face of the sprocket is the same as the OEM sprocket was. Some of the front sprockets have a shoulder on them that changes the spacing depending on whether it is facing the output shaft or not. If this spacing is wrong it will cause issues. - Van

I did a sprocket change on the same bike but 16/45. My quickshifter is now acting a little weird. Above 10k rpm, it doesnt want to shift 4 to 5 nor 5 to 6. At lower rpms at 6k, doesn't shift down. I had to resort to manualy shifting. Feels like a power cut but gears don't change. QS icon blinks. Any ideas? Would be helpful.

great video. need some advice please I had a massive issue with my front sprocket which has resulted in possible damage. So, as per other videos and guidance, I had the Mrs stand on the rear brake whilst i tried to crack the nut. I was giving it my all and then something made a horrible cracking noise, the bolt was still solid tight, but something else cracked - don't know what. I immediately stopped. continued with the rear sprocket and new chain but when I started the bike I now have an oil leak - not major, but slow. it looks like its coming from the water pump. I haven't ridden the bike at all yet since changing the rear sprocket and chain but the horrible cracking noise has done something.

@@pwh1t3y first of I don't know what kind of bike you have but make sure it's not a reverse thread. I use a impact to remove and tighten. You just can't get it to spec tightening it with a torque wrench. There's too much flex everywhere. That's where the impact helps a ton. If your leaking oil from the water pump you going to have to remove the water pump and see what you can. If the bike wasn't in gear and your wife was on the rear brake the leak could be bad timing. Nothing could be stressed other than the chain and Sprocket in neutral. It sounds like some kind of bent shaft if it's leaking from your front sprocket removal attempt. Go Impact for this. Many years ago I did a sprocket kit swap on my K5. I was at spec using the torque wrench. I had a piece of wood wedged between the wheel and swing arm. Many years later when I went to change it. It just loosened right off. It was barely tight at all. I'm very careful now and only use a impact to remove and tighten. I always check it when I'm done by trying to remove it to make sure it's tight. I'm just paranoid after that incident. Unfortunately your going to have to remove that water pump and dig deeper. If the bike was in neutral you didn't break anything serious. Maybe just coincidence

I want these chain removal and alignment tools, are these available in your shop? I think I also have 30 bucks reward voucher which I didn’t use for 6 more years, I get the reminder every year from STG shop :)

What size of sprockets and chain do you recommend for street use? Thank you.

@sportbiketrackgear Год назад

It is different for every model. IMO for the GSXR1000 the stock gearing is going to get the job done for most everyone. This bike makes so much useable power gearing changes for the street are not as important. The only way I would make a change would be if you want it to accelerate quicker. In that case I would replace the rear sprocket with one 2 teeth larger. - Van

What would be the best gearing for a 2021 gsx R1000R ???

@sportbiketrackgear 3 года назад

I am stock front tooth count and one tooth down in the rear. This has worked great for me at each track I have ridden it on. Makes 1st gear a little more useable. - Van

Would that be OK for street and highway riding as well?

Did changing the gearing mess with your speedometer?

No the speedo works off of the wheel speed sensors so the gearing does not influence. -Van

@hughiemg2 11 месяцев назад

I thought you need to use special sockets with an impact gun? That looked like a standard socket

@sportbiketrackgear 11 месяцев назад

Depending on the application you can use a non-impact specific socket with an impact. Really depends on the socket and the work you are doing. When in doubt use an impact specific socket. I have been fixing shit for a long time now (was a tech at a Cadillac dealer before I started STG 18 years ago) so I am pretty good at determining what will and will not work. - Van

Van! Did you fit a Healtech speedo healer after this or not bother as it’s a race bike?

@sportbiketrackgear 4 года назад

I did not fit a Healtech Speedo Healer for 2 reasons. 1) It's a race bike and I am not concerned about the accuracy of the speedo etc... 2) This is an ABS model that uses the wheel speed sensors to calculate speed. That said you can change gearing without affecting the speedometer. (only changing tire sizes will cause inaccuracies). - Van

Thank you for sharing the torque specs. As I say in all of the videos if you do not have the experience to work without a torque wrench research the specs and torque away. I have spent all of my adult life wrenching, 20 year professionally. Aside from engine assembly most professionals do not use a torque wrench. - Van

@will160176 5 лет назад

@@sportbiketrackgear but the gearing you suggest with the 190hp for this bike, would probably feel perfect on the track. It's just got too much low mid and not enough top for straight. Running out of gear fairly quick at 178mph lol

@sportbiketrackgear 5 лет назад

The gearing on my bike is 1 tooth taller than the stock gearing. I have not had the bike over 160 on the tracks I rode in 2018, hopefully with the bike set up a little better in 2019 I can get a better drive etc... and get that into the 160's. I think there is enough gearing here to get into the 190's with enough straight and decent conditions. I had stock gearing on my 2015 R1 and hit 194 with a little draft at Daytona a couple years back. Straight line speed is not an area I have a lot of experience with to be fair. Brocks Performance does a great job with that, I would take a look there if you are interested in drag racing etc... - Van

installed brand new vortex sprocket front 16 T rear 45t 525 new 525 chain and i believe the rear sprocket wobbles and has tight spots in the chain gets tight then half a rotation of the tire the change get loose

@sportbiketrackgear Год назад

We have installed a lot of Vortex sprockets over the years and have not had a bad one yet. To check the new sprocket you could install the OEM one that you removed and see if you still have the tight spot. If you still have the tight spot odds are the chain has stretched unevenly. I have seen riders install a kit and set the chain tension too tight result in uneven chain stretch. - Van
