I have a 6 speed om my SEEG and love it. I just can't understand anyone buying one without ASKING ALL THOSE QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU SPEND THE $$$$$$$$$. I have some swamp land near Daytona for sale......you interested ?

Per your own calculations...75mph/.02549  = 2,942 rpm. What'd I say...3,000? what's the issue? [smiley=confused5.gif]

If you run 80 plus ALL THE TIME ...then maybe the 24/37 isn't for you. I don't... and I find that if I'm in the 2,700 - 2,800 range the motor feels like it's lugging. It likes 3,000 much better...or 2,942!

BTW...I think you're using the stock primary and 6-speed formula. That would give you 2929 at 80mph and a 2.80 final drive.

The 24/37 changes the final drive ratio to 3.0.

I'm using Jerry's calc's.

Robert....

I had the 6 speed installed along with changing the gearing from the stock 3:15 to the 3:37.  My 103 is stock, no pipes, aircleaner, etc and I usually ride 2 up and pull a trailer with it on trips.

My impressions?   Best money I have spent on any bike.  This is after putting 1500 miles on it in Daytona.   80 mph is just a tich over 3000 rpms.   First gear, though a bit shorter, is no problem for me and the increase in acceleration is noticable in 1st thru 5th.

I found myself clicking into 6th at 50 all the time and can apply light throttle and move right on up the speed scale.  Naturally you'll gear down for any passing.  But all in all,,,,I just love it..

I would agree to that for a stock 88 motor be interesting to know on a 103

  I just read an article about the new dyna in American Rider magazine, they said that the 6 speed in the dyna has direct drive 6th. Is this really the case. If so I wonder if they did the DD6 to cut parisitic loss from an overdrive 6th.

Actually I am not a racer so I guess the 6 speed I ahve will be just fine, a sI love 80 MPH at 3000 RPM can't wait to see the gas mileage
