Gonna try it this weekend on my magnum with the MK65. Wheelies galore! Maybe I should take video.
12x56 gearing on a magnum
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
Haha. Nice. I saw those huge bitches on treats and thought, "why do they even make sprockets that big?".
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
Hillclimb magnum lol
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
Totally... I wonder what your top speed could possibly be with a 56 rear sprocket? 15MPH?
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
haha yeah mike. get that on video.
0-30 2.5 seconds
top speed: 30
lol
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
Is it a two speed?
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
answer: motobecane.
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
variators are totally gay. almost as gay as peter's motobecane. its so slow.
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
1 speed. Feels like a 3 speed. Go go go, clutch engages, go, go, gets on pipe, GO GO GO to 50mph. But that's with 17x40 gearing.
With 12x56 it should be GO GO, wheelie, GO, clutch, GO, barely hit pipe, go to 32mph. hehe
We'll see how it goes. It's supposed to rain all weekend though... :(
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum

Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
Hey, I'm building a magnum too (different one than the one I'm talking about here), and we have the same last name. You're an imposter me. I was here first. I win.

Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
What's your setup? And where are the pics? And are you running 12x56 gearing? If not, you should. All the cool kids are doing it.

Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
I had 13x45 on my polini e50 she topped out at 35, it was a danm fun ride getting there though.
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
14x45 on a metra big port with a simonini...the most fun you can have on a moped.
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
I had 12*48 for a while on a mk65 and a tecno hunter. I tuned the clutch, ant the bike would actually lift the front wheel up at the chutch engaging and the pipe's powerband. I got sick of only going 35 though.
It seems pretty scarry accelerating that fast too. I could fly up hills and would barely slow down.
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
yeah, I ran 12 x 45 with a mk65 I got to top speed in like 2 seconds, the engine revved so high and so fast it scared me a little, and I never tried it again. Almost sounded like it was just going to keep revving forever and blow up!
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
mike i will hold the camera
Re: 12x56 gearing on a magnum
i just tried 15x45 tonight on my polini, and yeah, good times! revs crazy high. made me put a drop more 2stroke in the tank
