I am due to replace the chain and sprockets soon (as a set) on my 650L and still run the standard gearing (15/45). When riding bush and farmtrack I feel I need a little extra grunt to get the rear spinning enough to my liking..... ;D

I have a new 14T XRR wide sprocket which I want to fit and am thinking of going with a 43/44 rear for some extra grunt. I also run a Dynojet kit before someone suggests a carb mod... ;)

My question is this' what do you guys run on your L's, why, and what would you recommend? I do not want to compromise top end too much as I still need to do some highways to get those out of way places..... :ricky:
