Hi,

I x-ed the gears of my CB72, but after a while (5K kilometers) I changed it back again.
Maybe I ride the bike different, but when doing 7000 rpm in third, and shifting to four, it is loosing rpm's (x-ed). Now, when I rev it up in third to 7000 rpm, and pick's up better in fourth. I also tried another secondary ratio but that wasn't working either. Now I like how it is.
