Does anybody know anything about the AHP 4 speed for 150 dollars?:confused:

No. The TB clutch needs to be engaged(don't pull the lever) to start the motor. The kickstart force goes through the clutch so you must be in neutral with the clutch engaged to start. Well, you can start in gear but you still can't touch the clutch lever and once it starts you will promptly lose control of the bike. So start in neutral.

yeah im thinking about doing this too and i had some q's. is there anything else i should do to the motor while i have it all apart? i mean in the cases? like should i replace shift forks or shim it anywhere? bike runs/shifts fine now but to avoid a future tear down,what are the weak spots in the motors(2007 crf50)?

AHP trans comes with new forks and drum. It's a drop-in. If you wanna get ambitious, you could source some different shim sizes to snug it up. I've put a bunch in, and not had a come-back, though. Two more going in this week. Remember that they're still small gears, so you need to shift right. Heel-slam downshifts will get you in trouble, same as with a Honda 4 speed. I took a spin around the block yesterday on a 117 4-speed. Nice:D

My mechanic is installing an AHP 4 speed tranny for me and says it only shifts into two gears at one (which of course is bad). He is suspicious because it comes pre-assembled.



I have only heard good things about it, thats why I got it.



Anyone else have problems with this kit?

The latest batch has an issue with the shift drum. I got two in Friday, and did some tinkering. The gears and shafts are fine, but the drum is cut wrong. I talked to Mark, and he is aware, and working on it, and should have replacement parts out soon. I put one together using a TRX70 4-up drum, and one with a different 1dn-3up drum, and they work fine. Rode them both today, in customers 117's. I switched forks all over the place, and it's definitely the drums.
