Default Scootworks pulley ordered.

I could not stand it anymore.
Ordered the pulley from Scootworks tonite.
Read and reread previous post about the pulley.

But the deciding factor was my 3,880 mile round trip to Sturgis last week.
Rode up there with three Harleys at around 75-80 mph mostly.
While my 900 had no trouble at all keeping up and sometimes leading ( That's right...Kawasaki leading Harleys..Ha Ha ). It's would have been nicer running at those speeds and in the heat and the distance with a little lower RPM's.

The 900 is wound up pretty good at 80 mph (actual from GPS).

By the way...the bike ran really great for the trip...Had a super time....Glad I went (first for Sturgis)....Great scenery.....Great ride.

And...Got my first ink while there....Wife seems to like the ink....says it looks sexy on me...LOL

Good to hear, you know if this will effect the speedometer accuracy?

Post Pulleys

I am also thinkin about ordering the pulleys soon. I think as soon as the rear pulley is made available, I will go ahead and order both front and rear and get it installed at the same time. Please let us know the difference as soon as it is installed.

I just ordered the front pulley. Figured I'd start there to see how much of a difference it makes at highway speeds. Other posts are giving positive results with the front pulley installed (+2 teeth). If more is needed the rear is next (-4 teeth).
