Title: 24/37 GEAR CHANGE
Post by: kng103 on April 11, 2005, 11:26:32 AM
most of the members on the forum that have gone with the six speed tranny, have changed the final gear drive to a 3.37
they have also said not to do the gear change without changing to the six speed.
the 2000 touring bikes came stock with the 3.37 gear ratio.
so my question is why do i have to change over to the six speed?

Yeah, 'er 'uh, kng103,
 You don't.  I chose to install the 6-speed to pro-long the life of my Motor, hopefully.  First five are the same + Overdrive.  Hell, I wish I had an 18 speed!  Ain't much sweeter sound than a Cammed-Up Harley with a set of Rineharts, goin' through the gears! [smiley=bigok.gif]  Gas it!! [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif]  Later--HUBBARD

Why not go for the 13 with the air split?


Why not turn 3rd & 4th around, and make it a Double Overdrive??

Yeah, 'er 'uh, Loose_Goose,
 hd2003 and DavidB have obviously duped you into believing you can poke fun at the Famous "Tater."  [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif] These two Clowns will get you into trouble!  I want one of those T-Shirts!  [smiley=bigok.gif] Later--HUBBARD
