19 tooth countershaft sprocket

[physics-teacher_imp]

I'm finding a lot of older references to vendors for 19 tooth sprockets but I'm having trouble finding one that is currently producing. They all want you to go down some teeth for crotch rocket acceleration. Any ideas, please?

Many of us 2013 CB1100 owners have converted their front sprocket to a 19T cog and love the results. Here is a link to the company I purchased mine from:

PBI Sprockets are quality units and are reasonably priced.

Thanks so much. Funny, I could have sworn I tried this site before and did not find the 19 tooth. Maybe they were temporarily out of production? Anyway, I've ordered.

My pleasure! Let us know how you like the change in performance.

Thanks Ron , I will have to pull the cover and count mine because Ferret has given me RPM envy............
plan on a trip to Barber in 5 weeks so I gotta decide.

PT,

Your going to have to trim the chain guide (front) so it doesn't rub against the chain. Take out the bolts put it in a vice and trim it down with a grinder or file.

PT / CIP57,

I saw this thread too, but did not have to trim my chain guide and there has been no rubbing. Don't know why mine was different but just an FYI in case.

 

[physics-teacher_imp]

Or maybe I'll take the lazy way and let the chain do the grinding! First to go will be the guard, then the crankcase cover, then half of my left leg!

LMAO
You'll know when you try to get the cover on and it doesn't seat properly.

First impressions of my 19 tooth sprocket. Messier job installing than I'd hoped; I'll have black grease under my fingernails for a long time. It was dirty in there! Low end acceleration does not seem to be affected at all, though this should be impossible. Main thing I notice: the bike seems more relaxed even in lower gears and vibrate less, if that's possible! In top gear, especially, the bike seems to be loafing effortlessly with NO vibration. Of course, some of this can be the expectancy effect: I see what I expected whether it's real or not. I am guessing the main calming effect may be from the fact that the chain now goes around a larger-radius curve with the 19 compared to the 18. As we all know (?) chains don't like going around sharp radius curves and will wear faster because the load is spread over fewer teeth. At the very least, I should be prolonging chain life, and I think the chain is thanking me for increasing its radius of curvature. In sum, I wholeheartedly recommend this mod.

PT. What's your tach saying now for RPM's at 70mph?

 

[physics-teacher_imp]

Looks like 3700-3800.

 

[Ron in MO_imp]

Thanks for the feedback! Looks like this conversation has another satisfied customer. :celebrate:

The DYI additional information - I had some problems to buy 19 tooth sprocket in EU, so decided to buy the OEM one, and the 19 from Triumph Tiger. My friend has cut both of them on the lathe and then welded all together.

Welcome to the forum Marel, although I see you've been lurking for a while.

Hey marel - welcome to the land of the living.

That is definitely one way to get your 19 teeth - indeed.

I do not have much time to read all topics which might be found here, but I'm still happy to have SC65'13, which I bought few years ago in a mint condition, with only 1.700km on the odometer and use this bike as a third bike in family - when is warm and dry outside

That's the short story, I hope not so bored...

You are absolutely right - this way is fast and pretty cheap, but anyone who is going to do this, should find a professional workshop to prepare this sprocket mod.

 

[jtopiso_imp]

nice welding and turning to make that work well.

Indeed. You need a tight fit to keep concentricity right and to keep the pinion plane perpendicular to its axis. Any miss alignment will create vibrations and increase fatigue loads.

Also, I'd be a bit concern about the heat-affected area by the weld. It seems far enough from the hardened surface (pinion faces and spline), but perhaps some stress-relieving wouldn't be a bad idea to avoid a fatigue failure.

This "invention" was already balanced and seems to be more/less ok - it has a small run-out.
Both sprockets come from the same manufacturer and have the same thickness (and metal alloy?). The inner sprocket was dedicated to SC65, so really I hope will work as should be...
