for some reason, im having a hard time taking up my 02 r1 (with intake and exhaust mods) up on 2nd GEAR BOUNCE.

i can get it up but only for about a tire high off the ground.

i tried 5k, 6.5k, and even 7k

or maybe my timing just sucks?


but anyways, im tihnking of changin my sprockets.

what do you guys recommend?

people told me to go -1 front and +2 on the back.

what brand should i get? where? link?


PS im about 185lbs and about 5'8" so i dont think im fat:finger



thanks alot
 
Your gearing change is the pefered way to go for wheelies from what I have read here - you may just want to change the front to see how that works first cuz with the full change you will loose more top end.
I have tore 8 teeth off a Vortex rear sprocket in 6 months doing alot of wheelies on my TL so I wonder about there quality under stress..
