Play around with the sprocket sizes! :smt003
Smaller size sprocket on the rear (down 2 teeth maybe?) and one size up on the front?

No idea as I don't have any power output figures to go on (except the Honda ones and its got more than that I know). Also its loud with the exhaust mufflet (the bit you can remove) god knows how loud it'd be with it out LOL.

Well there's something weird there, at 5000rpm I'm getting 70mph they're sayin 62.45 at 4800rpm both in 6th gear btw and to be honnest I am not normally in top gear at that speed usually 5th.
I think prior to my stripping the bike this winter I'm going to go see southern cross, see what they make of it, after all i'm not an engineer.
