100/51 fits? Did it require any modding?

For stock I think 88-92 spurs are best. You want to be able to use a smaller pinion(less rotating mass) on the stock motors for maximum Masami power. I run a 91 at the moment on my BD5, I imagine its still is the same with the BD7.

FYI a .1 shim underneath the shock pistons eliminates all play also the tini coated shock shafts with the 2 blue o rings and thin spacer make the shocks like butter!

no, it did not fit that is why we are using the bd5's for 17.5 now
