July 2, 201313 yr Author what size of sprockets did you end up puting on? I didn't put any on Bondy, I left it as it was to try it before making a decision. It currently has 11/39 and seems good with that gearing.
July 3, 201313 yr all my bultacos have 39T 11T this is the best for the late bultacos. my 199B had 42T rear and 11T front when i bought it was crap needed to be in 3thd gear to get any where but know its got the standard gearing on its a diffrant bike. have fun
July 3, 201313 yr Author I asked when I got the bike because I have a 199a and it just pushes all the time.I have to ride it on the clutch in most sections, I got used to that, it isn't a problem. I just fancied the idea of something more manageable, that is why I went for the 198b. I just thought that I was in for more of the same when I saw that the gearing was identical on both bikes, but it seams like the primary gearing is different. Many thanks for your comments.
