I'm goin to buy a gsr here in a few months and i want to get a YS1 tranny so i dont have to get a cable to hydraulic conversion. Pros and Cons of the YS1. Good idea or Bad? Thanks

 

bump for info ........

 

ys1 is a good tranny.. the only thing i didnt like about it is that the gears are so short that going 80 in fifth rpms were at like almost 5000

 

one of the most wanted cable trannys. super tight gearing. you can pass cars on the hwy without downshifting.
