The speedo is not over reading much on the Burgman 400, so I don't think it needs higher gearing, just don't go so fast.

eric, those revs are ok. Your bike is hitting it's max speed I'd say and probably more. High revs are ok, the bikes can take it. That's why it has the new revised piston and rings to make sure it can still hit a decent top speed with the slightly lower gearing. Kinda agree with Dave though, you may need to just go a bit slower. :lol:
Probably not ugly enough for the 'Ugly Bunch'! :lol:

Been riding for 55 years & owned too many bikes to list here...

I dont normally take it much above the national limit, but I wanted to test it against my K6 burger. 95 was max on that, I can't remembered the revs. Dont suppost it will go over 70ish till I go to France.
My other bikes have pedals
I've been ugly bunched
