I agree as well, I am always wanting to shift up at about 65-70 MPH to a 6th gear. Great bike and I love the way it motors up the mountains. Need to find a more comfortable back seat for my wife, she can only handle about 50-75 miles before the stock seat takes it toll. Also, with the factory large bags, the rear pegs don´t have much room, anyone try floor boards back there with bags?
