Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Original
Stock Top Speed?
BigGreenMachine:
What is it?
Anyone have the gear ratios so I can plug it in to the top speed calculator on Everything2Stroke.com so I can get a baseline where I need to be gearing wise?
Paul:
14/47 is stock gearing - I don't recall the internal gear ratios though :( I'll have to look around, I seem to recall a spreadsheet I had around that was already setup with the KX500's information...
Ahh here is that spreadsheet
Remember kiddies, I've got stuff all over this place, all you gotta do is dig ;)

Thats cool but I don't have the gear to use the speadsheet. All I need are the internal gear ratios and primary drive ratio.
gowen:
First Gear 2 : 1
Second Gear 1.45 : 1
Third Gear 1.181 : 1
Fourth Gear 0.954 : 1
Fifth Gear 0.791 : 1
Overall Drive Ratio 6.746

Second Gear 1.45 : 1 (hangs nasty power wheelies forever)
Third Gear 1.181 : 1 (now the 500 is hauling a$$)
Fourth Gear 0.954 : 1 (good cruising gear)
Fifth Gear 0.791 : 1 (now your eyes start to water )
