20 vs 21 sprocket tooth

Our grasshoppers are tiny little fella’s... and they certainly don’t do 60mph...

They don't quite jump 6ft high either.

Grasshoppers???
Back in the 90's on the Laughlin run there was a Locust invasion.
One was coming right for my face, I bobbed and dodged it..................................................................................................................
Heard a BIG YELL in my ear........................................................................................................................................
Yup, forgot I had a passenger.........................
I got quite the ear full.
She married me anyway..

I do cover eyes and the lower half too... Though will admit thirty years ago the leather jacket would have been open in summer. Caught a few bees as penance for my posing....

The Commando does well, it’s my neck that has the problem. Anyone know some good neck strengthening excercise.

Simple really...

You guys have grasshoppers in England. Try catching one in the lip at 60mph. Makes you a true believer in full face protection.

A wasp in your helmet is far worse.

Back a few decades ago a group of us were going somewhere, probably a pub or two, on our motorcycles when my mate, on a brand new
Kawasaki 900, swerved all over the place, nearly crashed, stopped in the middle of the road, threw his full face helmet off and ran about
screaming. It turned out that a wasp had gone in through his half open visor, he nodded downward, the visor shut due to the wind speed at
40 mph and the wasp stung him on the face. He had the visor half open as he was smoking a roll up

Not sure if the Kawasaki had a 20 or 21 tooth sprocket . Sorry

I guess this on track. I want the rear wheel as close to the front as I can in the swing arm slot so it looks nicer in the fender arch . What size sprocket would give me this. I dont mind using a half link. will be all new chain and sprockets. Thanks. I am new ... please make allowances

A bigger front sprocket will move the wheel forward, but that's IMO a bad reason to do that. Just shorten the chain by a link.
