I know that the first three gears are shorter, but I didn't know that the 5th & the 6th gear are longer than on the 197? Is that true?

Does anyone truly knows the gear ratio and the speeds in the gear?

I 'thought' 5th and 6th in the 200 were the same as the revised 197 'box that came in late 2007 (I think), but not sure.
 
the first 3 gears are longer and the remaining are the same as 197.

200 gears have longer pull in the lower gears

Ive got a 200 box in my 07 plate 197, and with the box, I'm getting lower revs in 6th at standard speeds like 60mph and 70mph, which does help towards the mpg.
It defiantly feels more fun to say the least!!
 
The official line is 1/2/3/4 are shorter and 5/6 are longer. Compared to what, I don't know, there seems to be a few 197 variations.

Mine's sat at 3100 @ indicated 70mph.

will have a re-check on what the speedo says @ 3100 on mine, i used GPS when i did my check as my speedo is about +2mph out.
