I'm always dodling along and in no hurry . I often am in town with 30 mph ( 50 kph ) speed limits . I find my tach is usually pointing to around 2500 RPM's . I keep wondering if it's to low. If I want to pick up speed I downshift .
Another thing that I wonder about is the rare time my tachometer is up around ,or over 5000 rpm's and I'm in a lower gear ,my bike has way more exceleration than if I was at 3000 rpm's . The 60 mph,( 100 kph ) highway speeds in 5th gear keeps my tach around 5000.
Is this bike meant to be kept in higher rpm's in any gear ?
