Are you shifting at redline in all gears?
I was shifting at 12K. Should I try 14K? I don't feel much power above 12K. To tell the truth I was "white knuckled" at 95 and was only looking at the speedometer which stopped moving at 95 in 5th.

My bike came with 105 mains and was too lean with the O.E.M. mufflers. I was going to increase the main jet size even before I installed the Yoshimura glass packs.
