    520 conversion

    I have an 06 Suzuki GSXR 750. The chain is getting close to needing to be replaced.
    I see a lot of people do the 520 chain conversion and go down 2 in the front and 1 up in the rear. How can i decide if should do the same conversion? I take my bike to open track days in Pueblo at least a few times each month. How much of my top end will i lose?

    Guh, I was thinking about going 1 (or maybe 2?) UP in the front, not for a higher top end, but for better fuel economy at 90mph
