    I run 15/43 on my 2007. I'm not sure on chain length, I'd have to count the links to see. I set it up so my axle is in the middle of the adjustment area on the swingarm so I had room to change rear sprockets in either direction, larger or smaller than the 43.

    I've never been to Roebling or Jennings but it worked pretty good at Talledega. I dont know if it helps any but I like it best at Road Atlanta. I'm not one to swap out gearing so I dont have much reference, but I did have to use a 44 rear at Road Atlanta and didnt like it. My old 43 gave up during Saturday practice and all my buddy had was a 44 so I put it on to finish the weekend. I had better shift points with the 43.

    I ride an '03 600RR, so I don't want to speculate on gearing for your gixxer.

    The WERA N. FL. tracks are:

    Road A
    Barber
    JenningsGP
    'Lil Tally
    Roebling

    Gearing for Barber, JGP, and Tally will be similiar, if not the same. Road A & Roebling will differ from those 3 for sure.

    Gearing depends on your speed as much as anything.

    -1+2 on that bike will work decent on all the N.Fl tracks, until you start to get faster, then you will find places that it may not work as well

    I use a tooth or two different on almost all of those tracks for personal preference. I think maybe two of them I use the same gearing setup.
