Reply To: Gearbox Upgrade??? – GV650 Aquila
I installed the standard X-Ring chain conversion kit. I believe it came with 16T front and 46T rear sprockets. The chain that came with the kit is 520 “Heavy Duty” JT O-ring.
Ideally I’d like to get a 6-speed gearbox fitted (possibly from an SV650?), but if needs be can make do with adjusting the ratio. I understand it will negatively impact acceleration, which sucks, but will also lower my RPMs at motorway cruising speeds, which is what I need more than off-the-line, red light to red light acceleration.
