Anybody know what gears are in the reverse kit for a ZR800? Thanks...Marc

24/39 for a 900. Not sure if they are the same though.

24/39, just like non-reverse ZR8. BTW, your only chance to gear "up" is to use a 25 tooth top gear as there is no 38 tooth reverse gear. 25/39 sort of splits the the middle compared to the popular 25/38 gear-up.

Some say you can only do this with a "worn" drive chain and is an assembly b1tch. I am about to do this on my ZL8SS as I have 2K miles on the reverse unit.

Also the reverse kit for the ZR8 comes with 15 plate chain and 15 wide gears.

That's what I was afraid of. I am thinking of gearing up and also adding reverse...maybe I will have to pick one
