kx500 on the street

01_5hunna:
A buddy of mine told me that the way my bike is geared i shouldn't ride it on the road. Its a 13t or 14t on the front and a 56t on the back. He said theres too much torque and i would ruin my gears, true or not?

I dont know if it makes a difference but it has vforce reeds and a pro circuit platinum pipe and exhaust, other than that its stock.

motopunk:
you have a very short gearing...  standard is 14-47 ... 

01_5hunna:
So if I put the original sprockets on it, I could ride street?

Motorrad:
I'm not clear on the original question.  Are you referring to the k5 not having a cush hub?

01_5hunna:
My friend said that the way my dirt bike is geared, i have too much torque to ride it on the road. Said I would ruin my tranny

I'm not sure what a cush hub is
