another Paso saved, great ! So you still have some work to do checking/greasing the steering head bearings, rebuilding the fork, checking valve clearances etc. Don`t think you`re finished  It was mentioned that there was a recall of the Shinko 757 tires which can also be read on other forums. It seems that some show small cracks. You may want to ask your tire dealer what he knows about this. 14/46 is some crazy gearing (instead of 15/38). You must live in an area with a lot of twisties or spend your weekends on the quarter mile  The smaller front sprocket and the bigger rear will both boost acceleration.A smaller front sprocket will wear the chain faster though. I don`t really remember but was it that one tooth less in the front about corresponds to 2 teeth more on the rear or something like that ? G. |

something like that  one on the front is roughly equivalent to two on the rear |

At an original ratio of 15/38, the impact difference of one tooth front/rear is approx. 2,53333.

I have seen in various post that the frount mud gaurd needs to be raised 10mm to get the larger tyre in. Was that the case with the tyres you have used. I have had a go at getting the mud gaurd off. but the bracket seems to be fitted into the fork leg and would require me to drop the leg off to get it out. Then it look like I would need to make a new bracket . If the work is required I would like to do it before I go to the tyre shop. |

the front mudguard is held to the bracket/stabilizer with 4 screws and the bracket itself is held on the fork legs with another 4 screws. G. |
