Clueless;

I wonder if you could check your shop manuals and see if any of the other 1300's have a LOWER RATIO Final Drive Gearbox, and if they would be interchangeable to the Fury? I'd appreciate it.

Thanks

I agree with you. When I'm "cruising" at 60 - 70 (Heh Heh), I'd like the engine RPM's a bit lower. Is that what you're after as well?

Actually, Jimmy, I'm lookin' to go the other way.

Cheers

Duuuhhhh

I see. L O W E R Ratio........Better acceleration off the line is what you're after.

I do a lot of highway cruising here in AZ, and would like the RPM's down a tad. I still think it will pull hard through the gears. IMHO.

The VTX1300 has a final of 2.818 (31/11) P/N 41310-MEA-670 (gear set)
The Fury same BUT P/N 41310-MFR-670
The VTX1800 has a final of 3.091 (34/11) P/N 41310-MCH-000

The entire finals are NOT interchangeable Fury to VTX. I know alot of 1800 riders use the 1300 final to reduce the RPMs on the highway and some VTX1300 use the 1800 final for low end power, I don't know what is diff about the gear sets. The Fury specific p/n's all have "MFR"
in the center. There is a guy on the VTX board that works alot with the finals, rebuilding and chroming them, you might email him and he may know the diff in the gears,

FYI The rear wheels drive flanges on the VTX and the Fury are the same also p/n 42630-MCH-000. The Fury has a larger dia axle bolt, I put a VTX wheel on mine last week, the axle would not go thru, in case you want to try a smaller dia. wheel, (the VTX 1300 is 15", the 1800 is 16")
