I got it in the mail yesterday but I had to go to a funeral today. Hopefully, it will be installed tomorrow afternoon after work.

I'm looking for a drop in cruising revs. I think the bike has enough juice to do well over 85 on this sprocket.

Doing the math, the sprocket and gear set up is capable of doing 166MPH, unrestricted.

Now, we know that this isn't possible with our engine. However, I've hit near 80 on the stock gear with no mods.
Since the 16T sprocket is 6% gives a 6% gear ratio increase over the 15T setup., I should be able to reach 90, on a nice calm warm day.
That being said, top speed isn't my main goal. I just want to be able for the bike to handle highway-esque speeds with a little more ease.
