Gear Ratio Calculation
Example:
| 6th Gear | Final Drive | |
|---|---|---|
| Drive gear | ZG1 = 45 | ZA1 = 17 |
| Driven gear | ZG2 = 33 | ZA2 = 62 |
i = Z2 : Z1 (Z1 = number of teeth on the drive gear, Z2 = number of teeth on the driven gear)
iG = gear ratio = ZG 2 : ZG1 = 33 : 45 = 0.733
iA = axle ratio = ZA 2 : ZA1 = 62 : 17 = 3.647
itotal = total ratio = iG x iA = 0.733 x 3.647 = 2.673
