What Reed set up have I got?

Thanks for the advice Hughes.

I'll get some as soon as possible and give an update when I get them.

While I'm getting such good advice, where should I look or put a new post to find out about gearing.

My front sprocket is 15 and the rear sprocket is 38.

But because I am running the Honda NC30 single sided swing arm, the wheel diameter (including tyre) is only 25 Inches.



I don't know how this equates to stock gearing with a stock diameter wheel.

All suggestions are much appreciated.

dsrtrider:
stock gearing on kx 500 is 14/47 with a 19-inch wheel is that what you are asking?  your gearing is super tall

YUNGGUNNAZ:
those reeds appear to be for the boyesen rad valve for the cr500.

Thanks for the replies.

What is the diameter of a stock 19 inch wheel including the tyre?  I'm assuming it must be close to 25 inches or larger.

Super tall?????  Does this mean it is topping out too early or it is geared for top speed?

Which way should I go with either the front, rear or both sprockets to get it closer?

I've contacted the people who sold me the reeds but I may not get an answer from them until Wednesday.

It was hard trying to find a stockist in the U.K. anyway I've got some coming early next week.  Twice the price in the U.K  $100

Cheers
