Best bang for your buck mod I reckon.
Another popular one on "that other site"
Step one: Bike up on rear paddock stand in gear
2: remove front sprocket cover
3: loosen rear axle retaining bolts
4: loosen chain
5: remove clutch slave cylinder, don't touch the clutch lever after this!!!
6: remove 2 little sprocket bolts
7: turn retaining ring and remove
8: remove sprocket
9: put new one on, blue thread locker on threads, torque bolts to 6 N-m / 4 ft-lb
10: replace other bits, adjust chain, torque value on axle pinch bolts is 33 nm, 24 ft/lb
go for a ride ( after taking it off the paddock stand otherwise you won't get very far)

I did the same thing on my S2R 800.
Although I didn't have a spanner to slacken up the chain. I tried using a screwdriver and hammer but no go.
There is a tool you can buy from CA cycleworks but I was too cheap to fork out the 20 bucks.
I managed to get the sprocket off because my chain was a bit loose anyway. Getting it on was a super pita. :bang
I'd recommend getting the tool to turn the eccentric as it will make your life easier.
just my 2 cents. The instructions above are right on the money.

yep, buy that tool, you'll need it eventually to adjust your chain. There is a couple around, the genuine duc one is a bit pricey though, there's also fleabay, (hammer and screwdriver?
oh dear! damage that eccentric and it'll cost you more than 20 bucks to fix;) )

So does this mod really help? I do a lot of freeway riding and in the carpool lane to keep up you have to do 85-90...allegedly. At those speeds I'm running around 5300 rpms. What would the revs be with the 14t? Will my 800 become a wheely machine (I like both wheels on the ground, thank you very much)?

both weehls will stay down, its just alot smoother in low speed areas (Citys)
as far the rpm goes you will elevate them a bit but nothing big

Ok, so I have a spanner and a 14t sprocket in the mail, probably coming tomorrow. I REALLY want to install it tomorrow! Problem is that I don't have a rear stand, and I'm not very mechanically skilled with motorcycle maintenance anyway.
1) Is it possible to replace the sprocket with the rear wheel on the ground?
2) What direction do you turn the eccentric to tighten or loosen the chain?
3) What are the torque specs for the pinch bolts on the swing arm?
Thanks!
