I am a bit confused. Now I have the engine- and g.box sprocket both with 19 t. The manual and the technical section tell different. Engine 19 t and g.box 18 t. or engine 18 t and g.box 19 t.

By the way, my Indian speedo gives me 5 km. p/u extra

Civvy models have a 19T gearbox sprocket...WD models an 18T gearbox sprocket...

The WD engine sprocket has 19T....Ian

Thanks Ian, I am all right then because there is a 1948-63 gearbox
I thought an 18T gearbox sprocket would help the accuracy of the speedo

Uncanny, was going to ask exactly this question as I have found that I have both sizes (18 & 19) g/box sprox in my bits box.

So, can a decent M20 pull a 19 tooth on the g/box OK?

If you are talking about a WD M20 then the sprockets will make no difference to the speedo as it's off the front wheel. I have no idea what you do with a gearbox driven speedo when you change sprocket sizes Ron

Ron, hi, how are you.

What I was asking is if an M20 can pull alright on a 19 tooth gearbox sporocket. I just don't want to have to change down on every slight incline I hit.

What do fok use mostly, 18 tooth or 19.

I use both sprockets 19 teeth. Pulls fine, even with pillion rider and loaded with camping stuff.

...and after 7 days and 950 miles it will look like this:

Dunney,

As I mentioned earlier my M20 has 19T on both "sides" without trouble. I do not know any better since I bought the bike in 1968
The question was because of the speedo.
