Turning down the OD of a gear

I'm designing a gearbox that would work really nicely if a gear with an OD of 1.700 had an OD that was .020 less. How bad would it be to to turn down the OD of the gear .020? Also, does anybody know exactly the OD of a CIM motor? The website claims 2.54 max, but do they come in under this?
