3.5:1 That is the standard overall ratio for a Vincent. It is a pretty tall ratio for a completely standard bike. It does give a really nice 85 MPH crusing speed, which is actually a bit on the high compared with the legal speed limit almost everywhere. On slower roads just use 3rd gear. On a Norvin I think it would be perfect.
