TS1 225 30mm phbh with power jet and franspeed road pipe. Using SX200 with 15-46 overall ratio 4.81 am chassing power especialy in 4th! Cant reach powerband in headwind or slight hill in 4th!
I have a spare Italian LI150 gearbox along with 16 and 47 tooth sprockets this would give an overal ratio of 4.99 Question is, will I get the benefit from this or do I need to be looking at 5.1ish or do I just neet to lose a couple of stone!

Has it always been like that?
I'd suspect there's something wrong with it if it wont pull 4.8.
Do you have many stones to lose?? That'd be your cheapest tuning option.

Using LI side case so having to use LI clutch bell with rod to align it. ( not needed with GP side case with brass plunger) so cant go to GP 200 gearing with this set up..
