    I just bought this bike a month ago, and was wondering what this hole is. It's the one with the red arrow pointing toward it. It does not have a plug or anything in it, but a similar looking hole nearby (green arrow) does. Should there be a plug, or is it supposed to be like that? Thanks in...

    Fellas, I'm converting an old WR426 to SM. I will be mostly on the street/twisties and want to do 70/75 without blowing up. Any suggestions on what size front and rear sprockets I should use? ...and should I get a 4.25" or 4.5" rear wheel? A buddy has a 5" but it gets way too much...
