Tim, A couple of questions for the expert... 1)Do you think a 520 chain conversion is good move for the 750? 2a)What gearing do you run at NFMP and CMP on your 750? 2b)What gearing do you run at Daytona on your 750? Thanks for the oil filter tip. One is on the way. Bob Hayes
Bob, the 520 chain is the way to go.I have always run 520 with no problems.I always run a 21 tooth on the front and run 45 rear at NF AND 39 to 41 at Daytona depending on the wind. the wind at daytona is always a problem.You have a belt drive (Map) I think so you would be about 3 teeth larger on the rear if you have the same front.A 20 tooth front would put you about the same ratio.every rider will be diff with the gearing but it gives you a starting point.

If y'all pick a track day, let me know. I may go and test some rear suspension changes, and WERA33 said he might do some testing on the Bultaco to see why it's not revving out.
hey carl i think we are going to try your birthday dec 14 at nfmp .and i did not forget all the help from you and nigel either,thanks.oh i'll be bringing another shoulder to feast on so the only gassing won't be limited to the track!
