As far as not knowing the Gear you´re in, it has 5 and somtimes seems like it could use 6 because it seems "busy". I have slight modifications, and it will pull thru redline and probably run till it blows for all I know. Other than just keeping your gear in mind, there´s a relative correlation between speed and gear. 0-10/1st, 10-20/2nd, but I wouldn´t bother. Riding is about feel, if it feels good you´re probably fine. It´s a great bike and with a bit ´o practice I have been able to keep up through curves with modern bikes and average riders, though I don´t recommend it if you don´t have a few years and aren´t sure the bike´s grade A. Ride hard, ride safe, ride on.
