Hi all, Just wondering what sprocket set up everyone operates? I'm planning a 15 front 40 rear. Does anyone have any experience with this? If so, what chain do you use? Cheers
I am running 14/39 at the moment. It is ok and first gear isn't so long now and not so much clutch work to pull away. I don't want top end speed. I have read on other forums about so many combinations people are using. Cheers, Steve.
Cheers Steve. I've done a fair bit of looking about at other forums too. I'm settled on the 15-40 combo. The only question I have now is about chain links - I'm wondering what length to get. The bike I have came with a 15 - 40 combo and what appears to be a 96 link chain. Do you use the standard chain?
I'm running with the stock gearing on my 750 (15/37)......... I don't find it much of a problem around town........ ......if the erratic behaviour of a Ducati at low revs is common to all, then all you will do by altering the sprockets, is move the erratic behaviour to a different rev range.... AL
Others seem to report that the erratic behaviour mainly affects low speed low rev town driving - as in needing to use a lot of clutch action when taking off slowly. I estimate I'll be using it in town approximately 0.1% of the time. :biggrin: All I'm thinking (and have seen others posting) is that she'll be a bit more happy to lift the front, and have shorter gearing for the tight twisties up here.
