    Bugger, I have always been pleased I have a little light come on in 6th gear, because sadly I have to admit I have forgotten what gear I have been in a couple of times, mostly in the 60-80kmph zone the 4th and 5th range for me. 50km is easy because the bike revs just slightly higher in 3rd but really lugs in 4th. The 650 parallel twin is easier to remember for some reason, might be the gearing.

    Do you get a sense or receive a notification of some sort whenever someone posts something with a keyword "MotoGP"?

    Also what don't you know about MotoGP?


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.
