Part Description
5 SPEED SPORTSTER & BUELL CLOSE RATIO GEARS Andrews "S" ratio gear sets are a distinct advantage for Performance and modified street bikes. "S" ratio gears give closer ratio shifts through 1st. and 2nd. gear. Each set includes a new main shaft gear and a new counter shaft gear with the ratios listed in the table at the bottom of this page. "S" gears will fit all 1991-2003 5 Speed Sportster and Buell gearboxes with no modifications. Gears are made from aircraft quality, high nickel alloy steel and then shot-peened for maximum strength and durability. See ratio comparison table., "S" ratio 2nd. gear set
Text excerpt from the catalog:
The 5-speed Sportster transmission has seen many changes over the years. Most gears for 1991 thru 1993 models can also be used in 1994 thru 2005 models when installed with the same speed gear on the opposite shaft. Andrews gears and shafts are made from high nickel alloy, heat treated and shot-peened to give maximum durability and strength. Also, where applicable, lead-in ramps have been machined into most gears to improve shifting and reduce wear on drive dogs and drive slots.
