TTR600RE GEARING
 

Anybody got any hints or advice on raising the gearing on a 2004 model to access a greater top end speed for longer distance road travel. Off road will be kept to trails rather than 'off road'. Thanks.

We've got a 42 tooth rear sprocket on our tt600r's(1999 and 2001). the standard gearýng ýs 15/44 so this makes a big enough dýfference. The engine will feel comfortable upto about 130-135kmh.
Take note though. We've been advised sýnce leavýng that runnýng thýs gearýng ýsnt too healthy for the gearbox and clutch etc.
I can understand why as 1st ýs really long. Thýs also makes rýdýng ýn traffýc less fun, slýppýng the clutch a lot. My clutch ýs really heavy.
We dýdnt really use 5th much untýl we got to Iran(after Výetnam, Cambodýa, Thaýland, Indýa, Pakýstan). So dependýng on where you're goýng i'd think about it

Thanks Wonky I think I may leave the gearing alone bearing in mind I will be carrying weight as well, std top speed isn't too bad anyway. Rather save clutch and gear box. Cheers
