Re: 5th Gear sux !!
You're turning 7500-8000 rpm at those speeds in 4th, so you shouldn't "break" anything, but you aren't doing your bike any favours either if that's how you ride ALL the time. I thought you drove mainly city streets, anyway.
5th gear isn't that bad, especially in the city. Most people say 5th gear sux after they change to a 16-tooth front sprocket. |

Well i stay in 4th because when im at 60 mph i up shift to 5th and i drop to 55 mph. It doesnt maintain speed. maybe im not shifting up fast enough?

RR, one question. Are you always on the same road going the same direction ? The GZ is sensitive to even a slight upgrade that you may not otherwise notice. Even a minor headwind will slow you down a bit.

No WW, different highways, but what to me was flat was flat. Some incline roads i noticed to, but in fourth i did 60-65 too on the incline.
