My advice with a jack shaft is take advantage of the ease of running disc brakes front and rear compared to a left hand drive sprocket.
the lack of engine braking with a shift kit makes you more reliant on the brakes.
Shift kits are good for cruising, but for all out performance, getting your gearing correct with a single speed can be better.

Go to the search on top ' how to post pictures.

There is always the option of mounting the disk break on the jack shaft,but not to big because through gearing you power so you don't need a vary big one.

If you use shift kit do 1 sprocket in front and a five sprocket on the wheel,realy simplify's it and that is more gears then you realy need....................Curt
