      I need some advice about which gearing to chose.

      My intention is to build a short track sprintbike, the distance is as short as 75 meters.

      I have counted the present gearing in my back wheel variator (or whatever it´s called) and I count to
      about 14,5 laps on the incoming axle before the wheel axle have completed a full revolution.

      As you may have seen my setup is a Dr Evo, a side intake, a Malossi variator and I will run with 16 inch wheels.

      My question is if this gearing is too low to be useful on a track that short?
      I don´t mind top speed a bit, the goal is to run the distance as fast as possible.

      In my perspective it could be good but I don´t want it to reach full rpm´s after half the distance either.

      By the way, what kind of RPM´s can be expected from the 43 mm Dr Evo?

        this one is with a malossi reedvalve case
        but wont be much different with your setup

        the cilinder was LC but un-tuned and peak power wil be around 8500 10.000 rpm on a handmade axhaust

        De budget beun tjoener: geen geld is te duur of het werkt nog niet

              Yes, I figure that it should work but we will see when I get to do some tests.

              By the way, what kind of rpm meter do you have?
              Where can I get one?

                that is a oppoma pet 2000 dx pulse rev counter.

                but they are pricy, the cheapest i found was 120 dollar, but they also cost 260 dollar.
                stage 6 has got also some of those counters so many options to choose from
