Question for anyone. I have owned shaft driven bikes, but want to play with a 5 or 6 speed chain driven engine.
I'm ultimately wanting to find out how not to wreck a reverse kit before I spend money on the thing. The question is,... if I am turning 5,000 RPM on anyone particular engine, then what is the actual RPM on the drive shaft? I realize the spocket differential, tire size, but not real sure on the shaft RPM from 1st to 5th,
6th or how to figure it out without putting,.....say a RPM gun on the thing for an actual reading? I feel like I have a brain fart here since I'm turning a sled into a 4wheeler and have that figured out. Thanks, Battleaxe
