Has anyone used the eBay gear set from autotech?

Auto Tech is a guy that started by posting/buying on line. I have had perhaps a dozen dealings w/ him. (forgot his name) but all was good 2ish years ago. If he is still doing online business then that stands for his stature.

I'd shop there again for sure.

Thanks zombie,  I'm willing to order but do the gears fit? Don't want to order if they don't fit

Can you link us to the set? I can't find them on Ebay.

I KNOW the Malossi set works, and I also bought another set from Moped Hospital. ONE THING FOR SURE>>> Dio gears will NOT fit the Kymco ZX so be sure it is listed for the Kymco, and NOT the Dio

Not a soul sells gears for the kymco zx50 anymore. you can get gears for a Honda elite pre 93 with the AF05e gears. I was told by someone china gy6 gears fit but they most certainly do not. Do not buy any gears for the kymco zx50 unless they are malossi 16/32 gears or custom cut gears you had made. Polini had some 15 x 42 gears back in the day but they went with the wind. The daytona gears have to be machined down quite a bit to fit as well, if you can find any NOS sitting on a shelf in japan. Zombie had some custom cut from moped hospital a few years back but I dont think hes up for more. I sent an inquiry a while back and suppose to get some 7.85 gears made. The malossi gears brings your ratio bottom line to 6.91:1 ratio, far from the factory 11:1 ratio.

Steve (MH) had the gears cut for stroker ZX's. I think Steve is gone from MH.

I still have the primary set I bought from him if anyone is interested. The OEM ratio was 10.8:1. The Malossi gears brought it to an even 8:1. The primaries brought it to 6.1:1. I pulled them out because 6.1:1 is tooooo short for street use on a 12-13 HP engine. I imagine the primaries alone will result in 8.1:1.

The 16/32 primary gives less than 7:1 on the zx50 and 7.83:1 on the AF05e.
I need something around 7.83 again or 8.10. Its a pain to find them.

That's what I have... The Primaries from MH should be 8.1:1 w/ OEM secondaries. If you want I'll mail em out to you.

Whatever they are worth... send it after you try them. I installed them, ran about 3-4 miles tops, did my speed runs, and pulled them back out.

I just have a crap ton of ZX parts... I bought at least one of everything at one point or another.

I'll send the gears Mon. morning.
