That legendary sought after 6th gear :P. Am already running a 19t sprocket but she is still screaming for another shift up at the top end when I am riding with a buddie on his ducati sport classic.

The little baby motors pretty well up to top whack already, but once shes there thats it.

I could have a smaller rear sprocket, but I dont want to keep dipping the clutch more around town when the traffic comes close to a crawl (something which I already have to put up quite often)
My 19/41 set up does not require dipping the clutch around town. There is plenty of torque, the motor is a *****cat in town. Give it a try, a rear sprocket doesn't cost much. You won't regret it.

Tomorrows the big day - I collect the Thruxton with the 39mm FCR's fitted, then take the bike to the dyno guy who will be lightening the flywheel and checking the fuelling. I will post the dyno results after the Easter holiday.
