At peak power in 1st gear, the bike is already exceeding most speed limits. Once in 2nd gear, it's exceeding all speed limits. For a literbike, you can replace the word most with all for the first statement.

Depends, for the most part your correct. But there's quiet a few stop signs on 55 MPH back roads and you can open a 600 up in first gear without going to jail.

I also have A -1/+2 setup so that I can use more power at a lower speed.
