Just how much of that was inertia of the needle?

Red line at 7000 lots in the mountains, but usually not much more.

33/11 RS is about 180 at 7000 in 5th.
I need 6 th or a longer 5th . I get 145km at around 6900 .She spins up fast 'cos she's so undergeared, nice on the hills though . Not so good on the flat .

What do you spin at 100 km ?
4000 @ 100kph
1973 R1000/5 LWB
