Yup, same here. 3.54/28%OD on a BN4 Longbridge with Michelin XAS tires
and still plenty of power. The odometer will be slightly out after a
rear axle ratio change which can be corrected by replacing gears
inside the speedo.

If you are changing the OD ratio then make sure you get the correct
planet carrier-sun gear thrust washer as it is different.
