| Just to say my track bike is k5 1000 ie 6 speed so the sb6 might not suffer so much being 5 speed and less bhp. I was however told that a 750 gearbox (6 speed) fits. Anyone done this? |

I think you need second gear to be strengthened and use the 750's clutch. I'm not sure if the 6 speed ends up at the same kind of final ratio of the 5 if so it would be like a close ratio box. maybe the final ratio is higher than the 5 speed so 6th would then be like an overdrive, good for fuel consumption.

Cose ratio box, maybe it was the 750 rr. I shall have a word and find out.
I like the idea of lithium batteries or battery? You can always short shift. |
