Either way, you'll see about a 10% increase in the overall ratio which helps. Not huge, but helps.
One way to compensate is to adjust your clutch for a higher engaging RPM ( CW ) so that the engine can rev higher and get into its maximum power band quicker.

Just do a search for " clear vinyl ink jet " and your find something. If not, I can email you the company I used.

Fixed the problem and ordered a few parts. Got the LW 2speed a new clutch bell and the screws for the brakes. The only thing I need now is a chassis because the front of mine is bent a little bit.

2 Speed Hub Bearing
Hi everybody ......
I'm new in this forum.......
I wonder whether u guys can help me with my 2 speed hub one way bearing .....
Seems like already loosen, cause i can see my first spur gear spinning without spin the shaft.
Can i change only the one way bearing on the 2 speed hub or i have to buy the whole set of the 2 speed hub.
Maybe one of you guys had this experience before.
thanks in advance guys

oppss.... sorry for not being clear here ... (must be my english... he he)....
Of course i already mount my motor... I ran my R40 almost a year already .... nothing went wrong till a couples of week ago i ran it ...
when i ran it (press throtle), i can only hear the motor increase the rpm but the car did'nt go...... so i take a look closer to the car to see what happened ... then i found out that the motor & pinion gear spining and also the spur gear...... but the shaft was not spining ..... that's why the car wouldn't go ....
I just think that it was the one way bearing problem ... cause i already check the belts, clutch shoe and other thing seem to be OK...... so my suspect is in the one way bearing on the 2 speed hub .....
There...... I hope can clear what i meant .......
thanks
sorry again for my english

The only thing I can figure out is the pin the goes into the rear shaft which goes in front of the 2nd speed spur gear (the two shoe sits on it) is missing.

Yes .... that's make sense also .....
but like I said before ... I already check all the other parts ... they're all in place ... also the pin you mention above ...
I forgot to mention that this thing not always happened, sometime can run and sometime can not ...
I think when the car can run mean that the 1 way bearing can engaged with the 2 speed adapter but sometime it loose ..
but most of the time was loose .....
thanks bro...

Yupp ... that sounds like it .....
In the manual book there's only part number #87082 (2 Speed Hub) that I can see.....
from the picture I didn't see the 1 way bearing in it .... and also till the rest of the manual book there's no 1 way bearing part mentioned for this 2 speed section.....
do you know what is the part # number for this 1 way bearing ? ..... what is the size ???
Beside that ... seems like I'm having problem of taking out the bearing from the hub ... it tied very hard ....
do you have any trick on how to open or take off the bearing.?? ....
Thanks Bro....
good to have reply from the expert ......
ps: If I buy the Lightweight 2 Speed Transmision set option part ... is it include the bearing ?...
