rear sprocket??
Does anyone know the tooth count on a rear belt sprocket of a 2008 softail? I kept counting 66 but that seems odd, I thought they were 65 tooth...must have miss counted? Has anyone tryed going from a 65 tooth to a 70 tooth sprocket for extra bottom end power?

mine has 66 and i was thinking of going to 70 but the width is wrong. cheaper to go to lower tire profile.

im sure someone in the great wide world of after makret parts makes a 70t that is the width of a 66? or i wonder if the new 68 off the 09 would be the same width? I have also been kicking the idea of the Evloution industries 30t primary sprocket kit...seems like that kit would do what i want

If you want more low end from a pulley swap, swap out the one inside of the primary where the front of the belt attaches too. this is a pretty common swap. Or you could swap the gearing on the primary chain for the same effect.

i have heard that swapping the primary gear is a major job. also i have not seen the 68 tooth sprocket. what model would that be from? i also understand they use 70 tooth in europe.
