Rob,
What gear box ratios do you currently have?.
A different set of gear ratios makes a huge improvement over the standard Strada box. When my Strada cases had to come apart (Crank case centre gasket split) I had a 749R box fitted, it all goes in exept for the Counter shaft. This is too long , presumably to give the chain clearance for a wider rear wheel / tyre combo on the 749R. but every thing assemblies onto the original T8 shaft. I assume any 748/749 gear box would go in, and this gives you the same ratios as an SP5. I dont mean to keep banging on about it but the bikes performance with this box is incredible, you lose that huge leap up into sixth. In fact you lose the high sixth completely, as the 748/749 sixth gives the same ratio as the original Strada fifth gear.

The other engine mods sound very interesting.

Rgds, Ian.
