Chain And Sprocket Sets

  1. Any recommendations for a 2016 1200s Touring (if that makes a difference)
    I don't need them yet, but the bike is new to me and I like to get a pile on the shelf ready for when I do. Which is probably end of summer by the look of them.
    I wouldn't be averse to dropping a tooth on the front either. I think the flat out top speed is probably not that relevant one one of these.
    Thanks new people :)
     
  2. Welcome into our mad house :)
     
  3. Hello, what's your top gear mph/1000rpm then?
     
  4. I went up 3 on the rear sprocket (15/43) on my 2011 Multistrada 1200 track build and it topped out on the Almeria 1km back straight at an indicated 155mph ish. Dropping 1 on the front sprocket is in the same ball park, so expect a similar indicated top speed. Dropped 1 tooth on the front sprocket on my 2012 Multistrada 1200 road bike but never pulled those sort of speeds so can’t make a comparison. Andy
