Final Drive Gears in 170i?

Post by GregsBuddy »

Hello,
I'm considering changing the final drive gears in my 170i to reduce rev's at cruising speeds. Scooterdynasty offers Naraku final drive gears at the following link.

Which of the Naraku offerings changes the final ratio in a 170i?
Thanks!

unfortunately GY6 gears won't interchange with any buddy 125,150,170. The 170 has the tallest gearing available. You could swap to buddy 125 or psycho but thats all thats available and only from genuine. Those gears would have a lower top speed.
161cc big bore kit, NCY big valve head Hand ported, NCY transmission kit, jetted and tuned. I can port your cylinder head.
