Top speed on gz250 - Page 3

I did it the 16 tooth sprocket and I love it. Less shifting and less viberation. When turning from a stop at an intersection I can at least get through the turn before shifting to second. I have found it easier to maintain top speeds (70+) when I take the RPMs up well into the power band before shifting to fifth.
(Comfort) something that helped make my bike fit me better I raised the front of the seat an inch and placed a 1 inch thick foam pad in the lowest part of the seat causing me to sit up and back a bit. More comfortable seating, shifting and braking. P.S. I weigh 215 lbs, 30 in. Inseam and 76 years young.

I got mine to 87mph when I did a top speed run flat road. I weighed 107 at the time.
