Fitted a 15t front sprocket tonight and the bike feels more responsive in all the gears.Just need to try a gps from work on it to check how far out the speedo is.

Thanks Ian
Sounds like it's about 10% then.Shouldn't be to difficult to ride to,I thought it would be about that.
Anyone with a decent cycle computer that can varify this?

Hi all
I'm thinking of fitting a 15t front sprocket and wondering if anyone has any idea of how much it makes the speedo over read by.(Bike is a 02 model).I don't really want to fit a cycle computer as it's just one more distraction.

Hi rustos You could try adjusting the throttle position sensor as they seem to generally be factory set incorrectly,to high a reading and the timing will be advanced(not sure by how much) but this will cause pinking.

Thanks for the advice.Went out and bought one this afternoon.Fitted already with no major dramas.Just need to try it now.

Hello all

Victor..

Has any one with a later VTR (F2) had a problem with the CCT or does it only affect early bikes?

Thanks for the replies.
I have the groves on the fork legs but no circlips in them.I wasn't sure if the clipons are suposed to come the bottom of the groves or if there is a gap between them.

Hi all
can anyone tell me the amount the forks should come through the top youlk by, and if adjusting it makes much of a difference(F2 model).

Just a quick note to say hello. I picked up my 03 VTR last weekend.Addicted already.First Time on a V twin and loving it.Had a 900 Hornet before it but this is far superior in every aspect.I'm looking to fit a fairing lower but not sure which one and have Honda skimped and fitted mild steel exhaust ...
