Leave it to a Triumph owner to find the easy way.   I think this is 
really the best way to determine the ratios and also gives us a 
chance to beadblast the inside of the differential, powder coat and 
treat with waxoyl as we reassemble.  

I don't want to ask the question about the gear ratio right now 
because I don't have time to do all the body work and paint, 
rechroming that will have to be done on Bugsy in order for me to be 
able to "truly" know the gear ratio.

Got to go, have some misc screws and bolts left over from my last 
mechanical adventure that I need to run through the autoclave.
