Going in for 600 mile service, can't wait to really get on this bitch. I'm thinking about a sprocket change but not sure the best way to go about it. I really don't need to do 100 in first. I'd love a little more bottom end. Suggestions?

congratulations......i need to do my first service as well. I love the color. I was fighting with myself between that and yellow. Have fun....after the break in you will see her as a beast. You feel you need more bottom end? im surprised.

Yeah, just chugs for me down low. I'm going down one tooth in the front, we will see what that does.
I liked the classic yellow as well but it had bigger stickers to peal

Got the YAMAHA R1 frame sliders installed with the sprocket. I would not fear adding the new 16 tooth sprocket as It didn't do what I was hoping for. I actually called the shop and asked them to count the teeth on my old sprocket and read the number on the new one as it was a "small" adjustment. Verdict is STILL out as I've only rode about 2 miles on it so far.
They have a little R1 graphic on'em as well. They seem to stick out exactly as far as the signals up front. Nice fairing rubber padding. good quality $104

I dont know about sliders yet.... im thinking about getting the graves sliders. I just dont like how they are so visible. I havent even put a fender eliminator yet. Times are rough. Sprocket change didn't get you what you were looking for well im sure there are plenty of other things you can do. good luck with that one.

Just read about a very possible electronic issue that is keeping the bike at bay. Roomers we are only getting a limited throttle response @ various RPMs. Possible as low as 60% off up to 6k
This would explain a lot and cost even more to right
