plus I like messing around under the tupperware. Per Leland, the best mileage
seems to be at 4k and under, and the gearing and taller tire stretch that zone
out to 70+ mph.

(43 to 48 and as high as 54) weather in the mountain twisties or on the eway
from 60 to 85mph and I didn't lose any performance because of the lower diff
ratio with no extra work. The engine does not have any problems running the
stock rpm all the way up to 75k. Just look at the results Leland has had with
all his bikes.
