am 15X43 which is close to 14X41, don't jump on the red line so fast than before and better run at middle range, faster too on 5th gear :mrgreen:

That's 2/3rds of one tooth up on the countershaft. Good difference on a 350.........

im at 15/45 on mine. stock on my bike was 14/43 actually. from a 3.07 to 3.0. not huge difference but i did it to run the front sprocket bigger, easier on chains.

to answer the question...you'll feel the difference but it wont be huge. is the bike stock hot rodded? when you put pipes on them they tend to lose some of what little bottom end they have.
