does anyone have info on gearing down the vector. i need to drop it because of my weight and want to install a paragon clutch which will make it imperative to do so. any help would be appreciated
Your stock gears are 8FA-17682-20-00 SPROCKET, CHAIN DRIVE (22T) and 8DW-47587-81-00 SPROCKET, CHAIN DRIVEN (38T) with a 94890-09068-00 CHAIN (68L)
To drop down on gearing you can go with a smaller (less teeth) top sprocket, larger (more teeth) bottom sprocket or both and likely go with a longer chain.
As example, the '04 RX1 Mountain came stock with 8FA-17682-10-00 SPROCKET, CHAIN DRIVE (21T) and 8DW-47587-00-00 SPROCKET, CHAIN DRIVEN (40T) with a 94890-09070-00 CHAIN (70L)
Hope this helps... :?
