Gear Shifting

diffluere · 07-04-2010, 09:14 PM

On my travels Friday I checked, and yeah, I shift into second going 20mph. The noise is similar to the noise of going about 32 in 2nd gear. I don't have a tach so I have no idea what rpm that is.

The fastest I've been on the bike is about 75 but I've never TRIED to go faster than that. I'm usually with other people when I'm on highways that have a 65mph speed limit, and I don't really want to get a ticket! I haven't tried (nor desire to) go on I-75 on the GZ. I've been on a nice fast highway on a Ninja 250 though, and that was a piece of cake! It will do 80 before you even realize it.
