This is one of the best gearing calculators I found. Keep in mind that its not just about the front sprocket. Some years has 43 rears some had 42 rears, some may have different tyres. This puts it all in prospective

I thought all years of the Speedys and Americas came with 42 rear sprockets. Some of the "Classics" have 43s.

My '02 came with a 42 rear, what are the "classics"?


Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.
