    17 in w/overdrive

    Has anyone done the math? Will the increase in accl/rpm per mph be neatly cancelled by running the tall final gear? Looking to find out if the paring will stock performance and mpg while letting me run a lighter wheel.

    17" front wheel, speedo healer?

    Should I live with it or is there a fix for this? I thought Boxenstopp had one but couldn't find it in their catalog.
