Does anyone know what the stock gearing is on the new r1.

I agree. I just feel like starting out you need to ride the clutch out a little more than on my old r1 because of the tall gears.

I just swapped to 15/43 as well. I used the stock chain since it's still in great shape.
Pulls harder everywhere and Cruise RPM's are still low in 6th gear at 75. 6th is insanely tall.

I'm very glad I made the change.

Now that I've hit 190 lol, soon as my stock chain and sprockets are worn out I'll be going to the 15/43 supersprox.....anyone have thoughts on whether switching to a 525 or 520 are worth it or nah if you arent racing?
