These trannys look a lot more substantial than the older model. They are equipped with helical gears vs the older model spur gears. Helical gears are able to handle more load/force because they have more teeth in contact at any one time. They are also substantially quieter than spur. The only down side is that they offer a bit more resistance/friction (because more teeth in contact) but with 2500ccs and tonnes of torque..... who cares

After countless threads talking about engines and transmissions and turning into discussions about women's undergarments, this is the first one to go the other way.
