I'm not tapping the rev limiter as much as I'm reaching the aerodynamic/power threshold (I believe) right at 105. I thought about taller gearing, but I’m afraid it might make it even worse where I’d run even further away from the torque sweet-spot. I LOVE the power of this 660 down low…it’s a friggin TRACTOR, but it has NO top end HP. I’ve researched a dual flatside/747 piston kit that could take me to 70 hp but that’s breaking the $2k barrier, and I’m not sure I want to invest that into this bike. PLUS…then you take a tried and true bulletproof motor and turn it into a possible grenade. I think my best bet it is to stick to the smaller tracks where THIS gearing will prevail…..it’s that or grab a small bottle of Nitrous and throw a 30 shot in it every time I approach a straight
