    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hey guys, Im replacing my 14T font sprocket with a 15T. I have the cover off and I am ready to take the sprocket off. What are the steps I need to take to do this correctly?

Thanks
 
Put the bike in gear and have a friend hold the rear brake on.
Then you can break the nut loose easily. That's the worst of it.

The rest is gravy. Just put the new one on the same as the old one
as far as any washers and whatnot unless it is not the same width?

Not sure if they make then standard width or not.
 
Ok thanks very mich, but what about adjusting the chain? Is that necessary? Will it change the free play at all?
 
Might have to loosen the chain a little. The 15t should have a larger circumference.
 
What he said :)

You will have enough room to just come front a hair with your rear wheel.
I am doing the same exact thing.
 
Ok. Do I just release the rear wheel spindle nut and slide it on the swingarm?
 
Disregard that last post, I got it on ok. Lost a little bit of acceleration, but I had tons to start with. All went fairly well. Thanks again for the help!
