Dommie 77 gear ratio

Forums
Hi guys - I don't have any info on 77 Dommies but my ES2 (1955) is fitted with one their gearboxes (GB8 1591). Can anyone tell me the top gear ratio for an early fifties Dommie 77 gearbox? Cheers George

Hi George

No expert, but I can quote Mr Bacon.... who seems to know a thing or two!

'..early fifties Dommie 77' ?? '.... in autumn of 1956 it was joined by another twin of the same size... the model 77'

According to his data it ran for a couple of years or so, gearbox top gear ratio (overall) waseither 5.0:1 for sidecar use, 4.53:1 for solo.
