Just got an 82 GL500 and I love riding it, but my wife doesn´t want to ride anymore. I miss having her there behind me. My only ´gripe´ with the GL500 is that it has higher rpms (6300) at 65 mph than I would like. I like the way it sounds at 4500 rpm. I am trying to find ways to lower rpms at highway speeds. any suggestions? Enjoy your riding! Dave
