BMI 2 speed jackshaft kit.

Has anyone bought the "Dual Sprocket Clutch with 2 speed Jackshaft kit" from BMI ? I think they sent me the wrong engine clutch. If you have one I would love to see some pictures. Thanks

does it have 2 sprockets on it? you should be able to have 2 chains side by side on the clutch that mounts on the engine.

That's what I thought. The clutch they sent me only has 1 sprocket.

The engine clutch has two gears, the clutch on the js has one...

Just as mentioned and pictured here.

2 gears on engine clutch, 1 gear on jack shaft clutch. The other gear is a free wheeling gear for 1st gear or low.

the dual clutch cost around 70 shipped if i remember correctly.

Are you saying that the Black clutch in the picture (and in your attic) has two sprockets?

The Black clutch I got has only one gear. I sent them an E-Mail about it but have not gotten a response yet. How long have you had yours ?

I got the the jackshaft from BMI but we got the clutch locally... It's been a few years now since I bought it... the original project went a different direction so it was never used..

I'd call them up, people don't always respond to emails but don't have much choice when you got them on the line..

Yeah, I will give them a call today and let you know what they say. It seems pointless to have a single sprocket clutch with this kit. It has to be a mistake.

:thumbsup:I spoke to BMI and they where great. They said I could send the kit back and they would send me a new one. So I said I would just pay for the single gear clutch. They said they would ship the dual sprocket clutch today and I should have it by Monday. I'll let you know when I get it.

When I ordered my "set" it came badly packed and the pricey drive clutch was scratched all to hell, they never replied back to me about it.

They just threw a bunch of clutches in a box with no packing. :censure:ut::censure:
