    We'll see. If I don't like it I'll play around with the gearing. I ordered a stock sprocket for the front too.

    As long as I can hit 70-75mph.

    Just reading about this, that might be a stretch. 16/39 is recommended for any length of highway cruising.

    I was reading that, I did some HWY with the 15/41 and it was ok. I don't plan to be using the HWY much at all. If it turns out to be too drastic, I will switch it up.

    Got my current assortment of performance parts installed. Eyeballing the Yoshi hard parts to finish the look, then some levers and a shifter. I might get a seat, are the aftermarket seats more comfy or geared more for racing?

    My E model is geared 15/45 and works good for my purposes (95% pavement). Rode her 61 miles today and that was enuff.

    45 huh? I went up to a 43 from 41 (theoretical max of 75mph), and I hope it works out.

    Picked up from dealer with 43, not bad. Would even opt for a bigger one lol, like yours (45).

    Went to a vacant lot, workin' on my setup for a motovblog lol.
