Just wondering if any body have used the med or swiftune gears Can you change the idler gear to change the ratio's. I would like to be able to change from 3.9 or 3.7 overall depending on the track. Aaron

If you'd like to change the ratios, buy the ones from Minispares. They've got the most ratios to choose from

Also, it's not the idler that you change, remember this does nothing apart from being a link between the input and primary gear.

Is it worth me doing a post for drop gear part numbers and ratios after the confusion in the other post?

I think it would be more worth while to offer bundles on the website for different engine types and ratios etc.

I know I've previously had to email you to ask which ones I needed....

Some of those numbers on that link are wrong now, even to create a kit for 1:1 drops would mean creating 4 new part numbers which we don't really want to do where possible as it adds to the already increasing list of numbers.

Yes loads of questions generated with the chart from calver. what is meant by stronger input gear is it compatible with the idler gear or different ratios?
