    ~10% increase in torque, at the expense of ~10% top speed in each gear.

    Not what I expected at all. I was expecting more of a hit somewhere in the power delivery, but there is just more torque everywhere; Kind of weird.
    Makes it hop off the line harder.
    The bike definitely feels much lighter somehow. And less clutch work in parking lots too.

    I did opposite, installed big front sprocket and small rear wheel sprocket + bigger diameter rear wheel. Now minimal speed is 15 miles per hour at 1000 RPM, but the top speed at 5th gear is higher.

    TPEHAK--out of curiosity, what is the max top speed you have reached?
