Why would you lose your speedo?

you wont lose your speedo, but it will be in accurate, invest in a speedo healer.

It depends if you take your speedo dashboard off at the same time as your sprocket,and then mis-place it!
J/k but I do believe that the correct speedo reading will be off if you cahnge the sprocket.

A tech. at the suzuki dealership said I might due to improper sensor reading on aftermarket sprocket. I knew about the inaccurate speedo, but never heard about no speedo. He said some of the new suzuki's wont work with aftermarket sprocket.

I would love to go for 16/42, but I gotta have a yellobox or healer to do it right....

You wont lose anything...
Speed will still work, but will be off a small percentage...
If you go to 16/42 it will of course, be off even more...
However, it can be corrected with a SpeedoHealer, no problem...

Welcome speedpimp and I would suggest you do one thing. Run... do not walk away from that Technician/ dealership and go somewhere that actually knows the product.

If you haven't already done so go here and download the manual. If you go to section 3-10 you'll see the area in question.

the sensor doesnt take its reading from the sprocket. its taken from a nut thats screwed on the end of the same shaft the sprocket is attached to.
