CB Tranmission in CA cases??

Post by Nick » Sat Jul 05, 2025 11:47 pm

As most of you know, the Dream's gearing is very short and 1st gear is almost useless. However, I have a very nice CB transmission (with back-cut gears!) and was thinking of using that in the Dream. Anyone ever do this? Any thoughts?

Transmission shafts fit fine, but final gearing of the two bikes is quite different, so a larger rear sprocket is needed.The CB gears with back-cut dogs and much better than the CA gears.
