I need get one of those 56T rear sprockets you guys use. You can launch at an idle, and the clutch lasts forever!

I ran 16/45 at 63". You can run a whole lot of gear like that, sure. It is just a different style of riding.

I have to agree, at 63" that much gearing is a little much. I found that out whenever I put the pizza sprocket on and it shortened my wheelbase to approx 64". But at 66" it's fine. It wouldn't hurt for me to be a inch or two longer, but not worth $1200 for a swingarm at the moment.

I tried running 17/44 with my big motor and couldn't keep the front wheel on the ground. Everytime it hit around 7K it just went straight up, and fast.

I'm sure if you had a data logger on the bikes it would be interesting.

Sat was the first time it has ever power wheelied when shifting to 2nd gear. It wasn't bad enough to let out, I just felt it pick the tire up for a full second. It hasn't done it until the mr9. When I find a job I think I might have to buy some of that stuff.

Are you sure about that, wee? From the video close-up I saw it looks closer to 66".

it measures 63 3/4, axle can move back over an inch if the chain adjustment would allow it,

would taking out one chain link allow it to go back but still allow the chain to be tight?

taking out one link will make it shorter, adding a link will leave the axle all the way back, but a very loose chain.

I could change the pizza to get the axle farther back, but I like the gearing, thats why im wanting a 12 over swingarm, so I could get a true 11" or a little more.

One of the guys at my track has a spencer cycle 12 over stock arm on his gsxr 1000. If you'd like, I'll snap some pics of it this Saturday.
