    I run a 15 tooth on mine with a 43 and 44 rear depending on what circuit I'm at.

    both work really well,

    hi sine - yeah, ive noticed that too, picks up really quick on the take-off and over taking, and much easier to get the front end up to mono - do you prefer the 16 or 15 ?

    Deffo the 15T!

    I was, (still am) going to go up 2 teeth on the rear but just couldn't find a supplier at the time selling that size sprocket individually.

    Plenty selling as a full kit including the chain.

    I have dulled the 15T a tadge though as I also fitted a 190/55 rear tyre at the same time which has a slightly bigger circumference that the OEM 50 series so nulls the effect slightly.

    15 tooth and a 55 rear which as says doesn't make it too harsh.

    I've just got 2 up (44) on the rear and it's good, on the road anyway.

    He means a 55 profile rear Tyre JM1, not a 55 tooth rear sprocket! :D
