You wouldn't want 4:1 behind the commodore.

I second that, the 4.1 = massive revs at 100 clicks, even with a transmission with an over drive.

Quote
I started with the 3:08 but wasn't happy at 100kph (at 2300rpm)

3.08 is a little on the low side, not quite enough poke for hills etc

Quote
so went to 3:3 (i think it was)

3.3 or what I am currently running 3.45 is a pretty good combo.

I think that anywhere between 3.3 and 3.7 (depending on what centre you can find) would be a pretty happy medium.

Bas, ph Harry on 818 3728 he's just in Kelston, he has everything bedford. be warned though he'll talk your ear off and is always ready with a joke or two
He's got a sliding door bedford there and even an old thames van (and original triumph motorbike), as well as some brand new, boxed (or in crates) Indian motorbikes - ex army (they down matamata), think he has about 6 of them as well as a barn full of classics (he wont part with any)
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

Ph Harry, he has everything up there, if he hasn't he should be able to get it for you.
