Gearing for Cadwell?
 
I'm going to be ordering my sprockets wednesday, on a budget so I'll be buying sprockets as I need them really, and since I'm not allowed to do trackdays on a 33bhp lisence does anyone know what sort of gearing I should be running for Cadwell?

Cheers,

Kyle

What bike Kyle?

skidlids 18-Dec-2005 21:27

15/43 should do OK

AK 18-Dec-2005 21:38

For a 98 onwards 583, you'd not go too far wrong in using 15/45 or 15/46 (virtually std gearing)

Pre 98 583's use a different primary gear ratio, which is what Skids ratio is right for.

Edited to add: if doing the woodland circuit only, then change front to 14 tooth.

Yes. You will definately need some :)

AK 14-Feb-2006 22:58

and for anyone who cant read numbers:

Look at the engine, if an older one, the clutch hydraulic pipe goes to the RH side of the engine - straight onto the clutch cover.

On the later 583's it goes to the left side of the engine - where it bolts to a slave cyl which is attached to the bike with 3 bolts, which is right in front of the front drive sprocket.

The 2 engines makeup are totally different, and hardly any parts are interchangeable........

Hope this is of help?

C, being dicatated to by Alan!

Didn't the real early 583s Pre 95 have a different primary ratio to the 95 to 98 model and then changed again in 98 along with most of the other engine parts.

Chris Wood 15-Feb-2006 10:43

Out of control???? Gracefull slide??? Power without control is nothing!

Gearing, 13/14/15 fronts and a 40 rear(thanks skids) worked for me.

We used 15/40 for Snett/Brands/Cadders full...last three rounds.

Gearing only seemed to be an issue at Cadwell Woodlands last season, everywhere else I don't think it affected anyone greatly?

I think adjusting the right wrist earlier and for longer is the best mod going.....cue humorous gags!
