Yes I did install the 14 tooth counter shaft sprocket. Posted pictures here:

So far it has worked great. I have no complaints.
It did not change the overall gearing as much as I thought it would.
It moved my "smooth cruise zone" from about 43mph to about 48-50mph.
On the ride from the above picture. We did an 84 miles round trip to the
Rock Store Cafe in Malibu Ca. Most of it it high gear doing from 40-50mph.
When I got back I still had around 1/2 tank of gas. Pretty amazing fuel
mileage I must say. To say I might be able to get 130-150 miles out of an
IMS oversize tank sounds surprising even to me.
The "show you a wheel" comment was a reference to racing you in the
canyons. With you new power band I would'nt be able to keep up...
Yes my friend with the FSE has his SuperMotard'ed. It was a stock Enduro
model that he bought stock GasGas SM wheels for. He is still running the
stock front rotor as he could not find one in the US.
