Funny about not having to shift before you clear an intersection. I have to say that even with 15/45 it feels like a super low 1st gear.

I was at 14/43
Which gave me 100kph at 8k rpm in 6th.
I should have looked at what kph the bike was shifting at at redline in first to see what difference it makes.
I will have a look next time I get it out to see the kph I get at redline in first.
