even more so as the bike is revving higher but only on main A, MW and DC. rest of the time is on offbeat A and B/singe track so rarely in 6th gear. most of my riding is on twisty scottish A roads and single track.
TBH stock gearing is a nice blend and should only change gearing for the type of riding you do. there is no point sticking a big sprocket on the back if you are riding main straight roads. if you keep hunting for 7th then put a bigger sprocket on the front but as i have said it tends to push you into corners so you have to change down on tight corners or else your off the throttle. bigger front sprocket does take a bit of getting used to.
