520 Conversion Update
The 15/43 feels fantastic. I'm turning 4k rpm @ 70 (displayed). Low end accelleration is increased (did someone say wheelie?) but manageable even for this newbie. Got a second opinion on the "knock" I was hearing. All say is ok and just normal for performance V-twin. I must admit it didn't break at 155 mph so all is well for now. Or was that 55 mph... yeah, that's what it was. Thanks for the advice/opinions. Next is the stainless cables. I'll try to get pics up soon.

you realize that with the gearing change, at indicated 155 you were really doing 55 right? (kidding)

I purchased the exact same set-up after reading that post of yours. Definitely the best deal I've found. I went with a 530 chain and sprockets though. Cost a little extra but I'm hoping to get a little more life out of 'em, and I'm not too concerned with the weight yet. Need to put a few more miles on the bike before I can justify the need to drop chain and sprocket weight. I'm at school now and don't have the tools/time to put them on so I'm anxiously awaiting the end of the semester so I can get home!
