 I ask John to help me out with the gear ratio, this is what he came up with 18:71= 3.944 :1 ............30:93 = 3.133....................3.944 X 3.133 = 12.359 : 1 ......................so you’d be needing roughly a 1.5 :1 ratio for the chain sprockets , perfectly OK , nice small wheel sprocket for less chain velocity . Cheers, Mark. |

upgrade the bearings and run ATF in it. How is the clutch actuated?
