I Was Once Known As 'El Extremo' - My Not-So-New Motorcycle Saga:

Decided that gearing the bike down closer to 4.00:1 would suit my riding style much better than the stock 3.42:1 gearing.

I fiddled around until i found a sprocket/chain link combination that afforded me a 100% optimal wear rate...
