What are the benefits of having the tranmission polished and i it worth spending the extra cash?

Its reduces the friction between the gears. So it would reduce rolling resistance its said that you lose a certain amount of power through the drivetrain so if you can lose less hp through the tranny the more you will be able to put to the wheels. As for if its worth it to you. Depends on how serious of a rider you are and how crazy you want to get with it.

Tranny polishing cost 300.00 but remember this the motor has to torn down all the way and that means I would have the connecting rod replaced and and a good piston put in I had mine done and it made the differince BCS performance does are motors
