[QUOTE="Mcompton1973, post: 1372990, member: 90937"] I posted this in new member area before i realized people are not really reading and answering there. I have never had a bike like this. My current bike an 86 Venture Royale. Before that, a street glide. So with a higher rpms this bike does...can you give me aome opinions what rpms for shifting and cruising? When i first git my Venture i had to learn it likes 3500-4500 rpms....so 55-60mph is better mpgs in 4th than 5th gear. So just wondering how you giys ride and shift. Also...i am an old fart. Im not looking for doing wheelies and stuff. Mostly longer rides. Hell....tomorrow my first ride will be almost 500 miles. [/QUOTE]
