right i think 50 is jsut a bit more than im looking for checking around for some other sprockets i think 3/4 9 was as small as i could find for a 520 chain. that should give me a little low end torgue. iwas wondering about the j/s input should i go smaller or bigger for more torgue (its real easy to change veruses the j/s output

Remember, those are in an ideal world with no friction, resistance, or weight calculated in. Also, there is belt slippage to account for. Gear it a few MPH higher than you want and you will probably get the speed you would like.
