    No,stock gearing was 13-50. I have a 36mm lectron carb and recently put on a fmf fatty pipe. I ride a lot of steep,tight stuff. I may go a tooth or two less on the rear if the rear sprocket ever wears out(stealth sprocket-lasts forever!) Works for me!:thumbsup:

    13/52 gearing is the way to go on the 150 & 14/52 is best for the 165. 12/48 is exactly the same as 13/52.

    I have 13-52 on the WB 165 and its all smiles here.
    would consider changing it with the next sprocket set change, but would probably go for a 13-50.
    on the 125 cylinder I did run 12-50
    I would not know how much the lectron would add and if I would need to adapt the gearing for it.
