Bruce Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 OMG what are you doing here? Bloody admin too! Ja, Anus, but you've been humping mine since 2004, what's new? Andy could use a 16 /42 or 14 /39 combo for the same results. More wear on the 14, less on a 16 combo's, however these changes may require a change from the 106 link 520 chain.
XTreme Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 I was the one that called you in here to answer an XT query last year you stupid busboy!
Bruce Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 Aah yes, I thought this was The Hillbilly's doo So how is the TDM? Traded it in yet? You never should have got rid of the wee XT and GS. It's all downhill now
XTreme Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 No....the hillbilly just takes out the trash Bruce! TDM's still here.....haven't been on it for about 10 days though!
Bruce Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 No....the hillbilly just takes out the trash Bruce! Well I'll be sure to tell him he missed a bit
andy1201 Posted October 2, 2007 Author Posted October 2, 2007 Thanks guys,hope I didn't start a domestic between you two..... my rear sprocket is a 47 and front is a 15,this is what the shop gave me as a chain and sprocket set

But it's like stirring pigshit...it just gets thicker. Sounds to me Andy, that you got a TT600 sprocket set. Nothing really wrong with that in as much as judging from the year of your bike it is a 3AJ model which is the same engine used in the TT's relaunched round abouts 2000-2.
XTreme Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 Careful Andy....he'll be telling you to hang your bike from the washing line next!
