49T Evo Ring Gear install
I'm going to get one of these 49T ring gears this winter and install it on my 07 RK, has anyone here had any hands on experiance doing this.
I called EVO and they where quite vague about the actual process of installing the ring gear on the clutch basket, all he could tell me was I needed a machine shop to mill the rivets off???????
Can anyone give me an insight on this process??

The crank sprocket gears the bike lower than the 49T clutch gear. Lower than many would like, including me. It also eliminates the compensator. Some think that's not a good idea.

I replaced my clutch and changed the ring gear from old to the new.. I used Grade 8 bolts with Nyloc nuts with Loctite.. put the heads on the backside... nuts to the outside.

I had my indy do the work for me. Evo supplied new bolts to secure the ring gear to the clutch basket (after drilling a slight countersink). You also need a tool to press the bearing out and back in according to the directions. Like I said, I had a local indy do it for 50 bucks. I like it so far. Cruise still works and i was able to get the 6th gear light to work again with the T-Max.

Assuming your bike has the stock 34T/46T primary, your primary gearing is 1.353:1, so fitting a 49T will change that to 1.441:1.
If instead you can fit a 32T compensator sprocket, the gearing 32T/46T will be 1.438:1, which is as close the same as matters! (99.8%)
So are there no 32T compensating sprockets available?
