I have some gas engine experiance but I would rather not be the guy who first attepts this
In an effort to make my question pointed I have overstepped my knowledge, a classic Newbie error I suppose....
What I should ask is: 'what do you reccomend?'
I love my new ride, but the engine is turning over faster than I would preferr at 125 km (maybe 85mph?)
It seams to have more than enough power to pull taller gears. (the roads here are not very congested)
Should I change to larger diameter wheels/tires?
Any thoughts?
