Hi, Yes, The streamlining I've added reduces the aerodynamic drag so that the engine doesn't have to work as hard at freeway speeds, allowing much taller gearing. Even with the 15/41 gearing, acceleration is still pretty good. I will probably try a 15/39 combo next. I have another hypermiler friend ( Alan Smith) with a streamlined 2003 Ninja that is currently running a 15/37 combo and is going to try running a 15/33 combo. He has a best tankfill of 116 mpg.
