02 M750ie
Installing new chain & sprockets.
14/42 on it now which seems odd.
I see 15/41 is stock so maybe go to 15/43???
I've never even ridden this bike so looking for forum input.
Mostly around town & canyon riding, minimal highway use.
TIA.
Brian
If NO highway riding then you're good, that ratio gives you a little better "bottom end" for around town
Now I see why 14/42.
They don't make a 43 only 42 then 46 for this bike.
Soooo new 14/42 it is.
All sizes are available. Including 43 [thumbsup]
Avoid 14/42 :o

Agree with Lars. 14/42 is a multiple. Bad as far as wear goes. Go with a 15 front if possible.

Who is 'they'?
Monsterparts has 43's.
And like others have said, don't do a 14/42.
I've owned a couple of injected 750's. I liked 15/43 but didn't notice much difference to 15/44 for what I did with the bikes.
Thanks Guys!
My local shop, who is very large & who I do respect, told me the only sprockets they can get are from JT who doesn't make a 43 only 44 & 46.
Guess I go to Monster Parts.
Nothing wrong with purchasing locally...
if they can sell you what you want.
Our sponsors are dedicated. You won't be disappointed with them...even Jeff. ;D
Unfortunately, the 15/43 or a 15/44 combo is not available on MonsterParts either in a 520 chain size.
I guess I'll just go with a 15/42 and be okay with that.
Thanks again.

Let me check my vendors.
No worries.
I'm spinning by my local shop after work tonight.
Thanks though.
These guys always have great combo deals: http://sprocketcenter.com

What's available in a 14T combo?
15/42 is too close to stock, and isn't what you want according to your OP.
