How To :19 tooth front, and now, a 37 tooth rear sprocket on 2013
#4
Thanks for embiggening the pics.

I'm not too worried about chain wear as I am generally easy on chains. My 1980 CBX had its chain adjusted only about 5 times in 20k miles, and my previous WeeStrom's chain was still going strong when I sold it at 48k miles.

New chains are so much more durable now that they have lube sealed inside. Also helps to not grab a big handful at low rpms, get it spinning up first.

Adding a tooth in front and reducing 2 in the back had the least impact on the wear indicator - they almost negate each other.

I'll take a picture of a new bike to compare starting adjustment.
