changing sprocket sizes

[nisom512]

I don't know the exact numbers but the previous owner put a larger rear sprocket on my 83 750 and I find that it really sucks.

While city driving I have to shift every 10 feet. (ok not exactly) and on the highway at 100 k the motor is up around 6k. I am sure there are plenty of reasons for changing sprocket sizes but I find on a stock bike for basic commuting, leave it stock.

ya know what thats just what I needed to hear. it is a commuter bike and I should prob just keep the amount of project to a minimum.

I actually already have the sprocket off the wheel and in the package ready to go back to dennis kirk. So i will get the 50 tooth.

thank you so much every one for all your input you guys here are all so nice.
God bless

My bad, yes, I misread, I thought he was going up. If you go down to a 45 you may find the 550 is a little underpowered for that. I dropped 5 on the rear but the 750 has more than enough grunt to generate power with the different ratio.
