great stuff !
What sprockets do you have?
I have the same with 16/46 but felt abit flat in 4 th after going from a v2 to v4 clubman.
I'm just going from 58/110 to 60/110 crank, not sure if this will help or i still need to go back to 15/46

4.7 will be good. I tested that on mine initially and it was great fun on the back roads but ran out of legs at about 65mph on the motorway.

I have a 110x60 crank, LTH reed a BGM pipe and 30 PHBH carb

I would go for 4.8 final drive 19 x 46 sprockets . Leaving the gearing at 5.2 will not utilise the power gains from the kit giving you no more top speed .

Ok. I ended up buying a 19 sprocket and 46 clutch, so 4.8 it is
