[QUOTE="James Burleigh, post: 1114540, member: 4162"] I put about 60K miles on my first FJR without using top gear much: ran it at high revs because commuting I wanted to have power handy. I'm pretty convinced that's what blew up my tranny at 60K (and I'm also convinced that all that commuting at high revs and stress also contributed to my heart attack). Now I shift between 3 and 4K, and my bike and I are less stressed. Just my $.05 worth (inflation acting on $.02). JB . [/QUOTE]
