Where's 6th?

[CanberraR3]

No doubt our girls accelerate quicker than most and I'm yet to see how fast she'll go. But why oh why do I keep looking for another gear on the highway? Does anyone know what Triumph was thinking and are there any suggestions out there to give her longer legs?

Thats my only pet peeve .... but having a gear position indicator now tells me when to stop shifting.

I've looked for 6th on every bike I've owned except for the Rocket.

I too kept looking for 6th and I now have a GiPro that now is just a gear indicator for me. But when I had the bike on the dyno they done a pull in 4th and one in 5th and surprisingly there was not much difference in the readings. A 6th gear would be nothing short of great.

More gears wanted...............

Personally, I'd prefer a 13 double over or an 18 direct over the paltry 5 speed.

You could get a callous on the top of your foot with a 13 or 18......

Oh, wouldn't that be cool .... a split rear diff !!!! Flip (Mr. Penske), break out the CAD machine and whip up a split rear differential, a big yellow pull knob right next to the tach would be fine.

I think I might already have stacks. hehe

I'm still missing the steering wheel spinner and the yellow split rear axle pull knob. (I'm fixated on that knob thing )

Guess you guys need to learn how to ride like a girl. This one listens to the bike and counts her shifts. When I check the rpm all is good.
