Any sprocket change will cause a difference in how the bike acts.
I just, quite literally, moved from the stock rear 43 tooth to a 42 tooth and did a trackday on it.
Differences? Less prone to wheelie. Slightly longer gears letting me shift less.
Its not a huge difference but enough to notice. If you go to a 41 tooth it would be a even greater difference.

Depends on what you are looking for speed versus torque.
Speed and less wheelies smaller that 43T Torque and wheelies: higher than 43T
I went 15T front 45T rear. I know insane but fun. I don’t go over speed limits, so it’s all about the fun from A to B for me. However I will go back to 43T to tone it down a little.

It won't change your speedo as it reads from the ABS wheel speed sensors not off the front sprocket like bikes used to. Lower front/higher rear = less speed, more wheelies, less MPG because your RPM will be higher. The R1 has the same front as the MT but the rear is 2T bigger and for 2022 Yamaha gave the MT-10 the same rear sprocket as the R1 to help with the MPG's

On the R1 however it has been reported to create a too long gear ratio making it not fun in slow traffic.

I feel 1-5 is fine, but the 5-6 shift barely changes anything RPM-wise. This thread shows the ratios: fz10.org/thread/4069/fz10-mt10-transmission-gear-ratios5th is 1.381 (29/21) 6th is 1.250 (30/24) I feel 6th should be like 28/26 (1.077). That would keep the main gears low and fun for the city but stretch out 6th for highway riding and MPG's

On the R1 however it has been reported to create a too long gear ratio making it not fun in slow traffic. I had read this too which is why I just went 42T on my rear. I'm very happy with my decision as I am not fond of wheelies and on track I can now pin it in 3rd without the front coming up.
