| Re: 06 mods You can change the front sprocket to a 17 tooth which result's in lower RPM'S at normal cruising speed.All you have to do loosen the chain adjuster's all the way forward change the sprocket and re adjust the chain. |

| Re: 06 mods Did that when I bought the bike about 4 years ago to get rid of that buzz at interstate speeds.
Actually, last night I bought a GOLD 530 EK MVXZ X-RING chain off ebay for $120 delivered so I'll be putting that on soon as it gets here. It's supposed to be no stretch so we'll see... |
