I have nothing to base it on but yes, I would expect a quad to have lower gearing than a motorbike.
I am also amazed and impressed at how much time you are wasting on your Chinese POS, well done
I would have long ago consigned it to the fires of hell from where it came and spent my excess money on the BCF traditional hookers and coke. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |

You've got plenty of spare engines,seeing as your well down this path now. Can you not strip a gearbox maybe and see how the gear ratios compare to the quad bike engine your currently trying to make work.
I don't want to be certain, but the fact your using a quad engine, would to me suggest it likey has very different internal ratio's, and possibly the primary drive ratio is also different to the chinqy clone bike engines.
You could pop off the clutch cover and count teeth, and then see how it compares to one of the bike engines that I presume your other motors are from?
Quads don't use massive sprockets for ground clearance as much as anything, so the reduction gearing must be done inside the motor.
I think you've come too far down the path of trying to get a Chinese twin Honda clone to fit, to turn back and start again with something better, so I would do some investigating personally to see wtf is going on.
I reckon you could get a manual for the genuine Honda 250 twin motors and the info for the gearing. Failing that ask Teflon to count his teeth on his Benley 125's, as im sure it's something he'd get immersed in very easily and come back with every gearbox permutation Honda ever made. |

Can I encourage everyone to read lingeringstinks posts in a slightly grumpy Texan accent for the full effect.
And yes, I'd expect a 250cc 4t chinese quad to top out at about 45mph. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”
