Wonderful idea.
But how is this related to the Valkyrie, it said it was for a Concours (?). Did I miss a link or something?

If only!!!!
I wonder why no one ever did a gear case mod for higher gearing... it would have the same effect.
(Prolly just the cost of having to redesign the case to fit different gears.)

97 and later GL1500 has different OD gears than the valkyrie, but cases have to be split to install.
wondering if something can't be done with the output shaft gears. I have never had to change a clutch so not really sure how it works/transmits power to the drive shaft.
