Front sprocket for the GV250. Available in 13 or 15 teeth.
13 teeth = better acceleration
The Factory gearing is very tall. Highway speeds in the high gears produce very low engine speeds.
Perhaps too low for brisk acceleration for passing or emergencies without downshifting.
At all road speeds, the engine will operate at higher rpm's where more power is available for better acceleration. Also, because of the torque multiplication effects of transmission gearing, the modified gear ratio has the effect of increasing the effective rear wheel torque by a computable amount:
Rear Wheel Torque with Smaller Front Sprocket = Rear Wheel Torque with Stock Sprocket x (14/13), a 7.7% increase.
The smaller sprocket lighter in weight and thus has less rotational
mass to accelerate.
14 teeth = stock
15 teeth = less RPM at cruising speeds.
