didnt you go with a 48 tooth rear sprocket? if so you need to put in a setting of -20.2 on your speedo healer. theres a vid on youtube exactly how to do it its easy and yours is the M version just so you know.
my bike is a 50 on the rear and will still hit 83 at rev limit in 6th, you should be able to cruise at 65-70mph all day long without even feeling uncomfortable with that gearing if yours is a 48

lol everyone keeps saying that, in new york although we had a pretty green winter, right now we normally have about 4feet of snow and although we dont have snow right now we got salt all over the roads and most of us wont take bikes out much from dec-april. stubbz and r1wonder can vauge for that! worst part about living in ny is winters although i got a sled it makes it better but umm havent got to ride that once this year either!!!!

my girlfriend wouldnt even really look at my k8 1000... still to this day i say i want another and she cringes.
k guys these threads make me regret selling the 250x. dont think the bike i had had the flapper mod and im positive that 52 tooth sprocket was overkill. i want it back now. slow or not i miss having a sumo and have been all up in the for sale threads on here,supermotojunkie and craigslist.

haha my girl loves it but she's a thrill seaker. she's a keeper for sure lol. yeah the 52 is a bit of overkill thats kinda what gearing loogie is running cuz i think he's -1+10 which is way to much unless your doin lot only stuff in my opinion. one guy that had one last year was runnin a 54 on back stock front but it was a lot bike only not even on the road which is great for only lot stuff but a sumo is made for all around terrorization of lots streets and anything urban. i was runnin -1+7 for a lil bit which was great in the lot for slow O's but was a bit to much for my daily commute to work. since i went back to just a +8 or 50 on back only its perfect for everything i do with it, O's are still slow and controlled when i want um to be and i can still ride streets a bit i just keep it right at 60mph if im travelin and its fine.
