    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I am doing a sprocket change (possibly both) on a 77 750. I am just curious what final drive ratios others are using and why. I ride almost over 120 miles everytime I get out but would still like to keep it sporty and fun. Currently I have a 41/16 final drive, any recommendations?
 
Stock ratio for the 77 750 is 41/15. If you go with this ratio, you should see a 300 or so rpm jump. If you can measure the circumference of your rear wheel & tire I can give you a better estimate.

I have already used Gear Calc and I am thinking about going back to stock! I was just curious what other 750 riders were using and if they liked it.
 
I dropped one tooth on the 750 front sprocket for a little more zip around town but didn't care for the extra buzz at highway speeds. Went back to the stock sprockets and liked it much betterIt is still asimple enougj job I can swap them back and forth depending on my riding plans.
 
What or who would you recommend for sprockets and chain (530)? What kind of money should I be looking at. It's not that I'm cheap I just don't want to get ripped off by some dealer who knows I don't have a clue!
 
I took my sprockets to a dealer who faxed their footprint to his wholesaler to locate a match. I'm still waiting for a reply...thanks for the link, I'll probably pursue them if I don't hear anything.
