So Im not sure how many people will be able to answer this question but ill let it rip. How difficult would it be to change the gearing in the tranny? I would be looking for a more torque 1st gear(smaller on the drive bigger on the driven) and 2nd-5th geared for speed(mostly stock) and 6th will be an overdrive (bigger drive smaller driven). would i be able to order gears for it or is this impossible? I know its easier to change sprocket but you can only go so far smaller or bigger till you damage the chain or sprockets.

If you find a set of gears to do this let me know, I'd love it!!!!! Currently getting 6th closer to where I want it with 17t sprocket, but would prefer a lower first.

Can't think of any way this would happen though, unless you find gears from another bike that fit, or get them custom made!

Ooooh, transmission..... well in that case.. It sounds like a good idea, but I have absolutely no idea how that stuff works. I'd be interested to find out though, because I'd love to have a bike that's geared low for around town, but still have that one top gear that'd let me cruise comfortably on the highway.
