I have Yamaha RX 135 4 speed 2002 model.
I’m planning to convert my 4 speed gearbox to 5 speed gearbox, why I’m converting coz two reasons: 1st -for experiment, 2nd – I always felt that RX 135 should have one more gear for more comfort ride. Top speed is not my concern but I don’t wanna disturb my current performance. Why I’m here I need experts opinions about the conversion. I have already discussed with my mechanic, arrange a 5 speed gearbox, he said. I don’t wanna blindly trust him, so seeking expert suggestion. I have two options for gear box
1. RX king 5 speed gearbox (Taiwan made)
2. Second hand RX 135 5 speed gearbox
There is no much cost difference, both available in around 7k to 8k. I will appreciate If anybody can help to find cheaper good quality gearbox. Which one will be a better option for me ?. I’m not planning to change my piston or block only gearbox. Can anybody explain the conversion process in detail ? (without change in piston setup). Do I need to consider any other changes for this. I’m not looking for very costly conversion, my budget is 10k including gearbox and labour. Do I have to change the clutch plate assembly also ? Any changes in engine housing?.
Please help me. Thank You.
