  • Today I installed a 19t sprocket to replace my 18t on my 2007 Triumph Speedmaster. The difference for me was great, it feels like 4th gear was the old 5th gear, so cruising at 110kmh in 4 and then clicking to 5th really feels like an overdrive. Off the line performance was hardly noticeable.
    Big test 11th Feb with a 500km day ride, stay tuned for that and a final review!

    What mirrors are those? Did they need an adaptor? And what is the taillight/turn signals? Bike looks wonderful!

    Your speedometer will be reading under. I am pretty sure you can get the speedometer calibrated or just find out how much it reads under in case you go through a radar zone.

    Was the chain long enough?

    It always feels like I need another gear at 110/120 ,it looks like I'm after a 19 ✊

      Mine was the same, 110/120 just felt it was revving a little to high. The 19t changed it and was relatively cheap and easy. Good test next week in the highways for a good 400km so will do a review after that 👍👍 I think you'd be happy with a 19t

    what size are those bars and where did you get your cables and how much longer are the cables, sorry mate i know its 20 question time. i want to do the same to mine but dont know where to start

    • @rubbersidedownunder

      All good! The bars are TDR 10in bars bought online and the cables, +200mm on both the clutch and throttle cables and +250mm on the front brake line. They were purchased at Hinkley Triumph Australia, they have an online store on ebay 👍

      I have a question on the same topic. Are those the stock wiring on it?

    Much of a difference? Is it better at cruising at 100k?

    • @rubbersidedownunder

      Honestly made a huge difference. Best way to describe I guess is 4th gear feels like 5th did with the 18t... Can cruise along at 100-110 in 4th and then realise I have another gear. Makes that 110-120kmh cruise effortless and realistically didn't lose much torque down low. Big test next weekend, 500km of snowy mountain highways

      Sorry, didn't see the comment till now. I have since removed the 19t and back to 18t while I was commuting over winter. I will pop the 19t back on soon for the big rides during summer
