KLR 650 Gearing
What can be done to reduce RPM at road speeds of 70 - 75 mph while not compromising off-road use?
Thanks...any help appreciated. |

Sprocket
Get a front sprocket with more teeth and use it on-road; swap back when you go off-road.

How much of an RPM reduction will I get with 1 tooth at say 70 mph?

I believe that I've read that going 1 tooth different on the front sproket of a KLR650 will change the rpm by about 500. Have a look on KLR650.net.
