Galaxy SUV250 thread (was ChinaV's Galaxy250)

[ChinaV]

ChinaV - In post #52 you talked about your 428 chain conversion & listed a couple of sprocket options. What sprocket combination did you settle on? The 17/48 or the 17/49?

On a side note - It looks like you "converted" ratio is similar to the ratio on Galaxy's SUV 250. Any idea if the SUV is running 520 chain?

I'm not sure about the drive components on the SUV, I find it hard to believe they got a 17 tooth 520 sprocket onto that output shaft. I changed three XTR's over to 428, two are 17/48 and one is 17/49. I think Galaxy is out of 17/48 sprockets. The difference between the two is hardly noticeable.

I did get a chance to zip around the parking lot at Galaxy on the SUV... nice little bike .



Cheers!
