Title: GS-stunt bike
Post by: 97gs500e on August 19, 2005, 11:16:47 PM
When I get my new bike next spring , I'd like to turn my GS into a stunt bike. Should I rejet and replace my stock exhuast, or would new sprockets be enough?

How many teeth are on the stock rear sprocket on the GS?

keep it stock, no reason to rejet, learn to wheelie with stock sprockets then gear it once you can ride balance point good.  like 1/2 to 1 mile good.

I believe its 39 teeth on the rear sprocket.  I've been thinking about stunting my bike too.  

Which would give better performance ?
a 15t front sprocket    or
a 44t rear sprocket

I found a good deal on a 44t rear sprocket.. Will it kill my top end?

change the sprockets out to help you learn how to wheelie and find the balance point. bigger out back, much bigger.

10 up in the back 1 down in the front and rejet and exhaust does help cause you have better throttle response.
