How could I change the gearing on my CX650? I'd like to get a higher top speed, something like 150 if possible.
>>14304665
>CX
Not even once
Just change your gearing. It's easy
>>14304665
Sell it and buy another bike. Not worth the time and money investment required.
>>14304685
>>14304687
Don't tell me to get another bike, tell me what I can do to achieve my goal.
>bump
get a car
>>14304833
Kill yourself
>>14304732
>remove front sprocket
>replace with different sprocket
>remove rear sprocket
>replace with different sprocket.
Profit.
It's up to you to do the research of how many teeth works
>>14304846
maybe you should do that. oh wait, you're riding one of those toys, you'll get killed by a real adult driving a car because you have to be on your gay bike
>>14304665
It's going to be impossible to achieve 150 with your bike.
The turbo cx650 topped out at 140 mph and had a shit load more power and way better aerodynamics. Your bike is incapable, faggot.

>>14304885

>>14304867
Okay, :-)
>>14304895
Nigga you dumb.
Have you ever ridden a motorcycle before?
>>14304885
>thinks a 500 lb bike with 50 hp and the aerodynamics of ur mum can hit 150
>>14304895
Doesn't know how powerful my bike is
>>14304916
48.
48 horsepower stock.
48 horsepower stock AT THE FLYWHEEL.
>>14304953
Fucking idiot
>67 HP
>673cc
>>14304962
no, 48
>>14304980
That's the CX500 you mongoloid
We're talking about km/h here right?
Well I guess /o/ is truly the shittiest board
>>14304998
Cx650 topped out at 172 kph stock.
>>14304867
>he doesn't own any other vehicles than his toy
>implying
>>14304989
Actually, you are correct. I was wrong. 65 hp.
Still laughable.
>>14305015
So now this dude wants to magically reach 241 without increasing power?
LMAO
>>14305025
>this guy
You can tell who's never ridden a motorcycle here
>>14305025
In the /dbt/ thread he said he is going to turbo and mega squirt it. Still ain't happening.
>>14305025
I AM going to increase power, but I need help with the gearing
>>14305035
The CX650 turbo made 140 and I'd be happy with a lower speed of like 120
>>14305032
Is it you?
>>14305048
Been riding since I could walk.
I also understand how gearing works.
>>14305059
I like this guy
>>14305035
You are going to need to custom fabricate the proper gears on the wheel hub, drive shaft, and output shaft of the tranmission. You will need a machine shop and be able to make numerous molds and custom fit and test everything many MANY times over. Your goals aren't feasible.
>>14305072
So, is there a set top speed on these or is it just the lack of power?
>>14305072
The fuck?
>>14305082
What? Don't you understand?
>>14305059
Apparently it's magic and can deny physics.
PROTIP: Air resistance is twice as high at 150 mph than at 110 mph.

Tldr. You don't have the power and never will
>>14305082
Dude, if you don't believe us, go join a CX500/650 forum and ask them.
Post results.
>>14304863
>sprockets
>shaft drive bike
>>14305127
I'll show you a drive shaft.
So should I just treat it like a heavy motard then? That's a bit depressing but I guess...
>>14305139
Why do you need to do 150mph?
It will cruise just fine @ 65-75mph

its going to be cheaper to buy a different bike
>>14305035
>>14304665
Sell the CX, get a 600cc supersport.
>>14305139
Maybe you'll be the first to get a CX650 up to 150, but you're going to need power, custom gearing, and lots of aero. At the end of the day, you will still have a CX650. If you really want to do it, you're going to have blaze your own trail, but please understand that this won't be easy and will likely end in broken bike or a stalled out project.
>>14305148
>>14305159
You guys probably didn't see what I said before, but I'd be happy with 120 or 130 too, I'm also planning a fireblade front end replacement and weight reduction for a cafe style bike.
>pic related
>>14305188
Did you read that thread?
Best option is going oversized wheel/tire in the rear.
>>14305188
You've obviously got your mind made up. No one here believes it's possible, but don't let us stop you from trying. There is a reason you never see high hp and hig top speed CXs, and it's because they don't exist. You have an uphill battle. Godspeed.
>>14305188
>cafe style bike
>stance of motorcycles
thread is over..now i see why he stopped posting in dbt
>>14305219
Oh no someone changed the seat and handle bars!!!!
WWWWWAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!
>>14305212
I don't know man, I'll just see what I can do, I can live with the stock speed I suppose...
>>14305219
Please explain, I stopped posting there to refrain from shitting up the thread with my bullshit.
>>14305258
>>14304665
Have you ever ridden a motorcycle at speeds in excess of 100MPH before?
If not, don't even bother.
>>14305258
Don't know what he's on about, I have nothing against cafe.
>>14305267
I have when I was younger, 80MPH is more common on my current bike, I also ride to 110-120ish on my sled occasionally
>>14305274
What did you mean by stance of bikes?
Unless you can somehow (you can't) shoehorn a CBR1100XX motor in there then you're never even going to get close
