Thanks for the correction Snake...

As I said before, I'm still learning the true "physics" of HP, torque and acceleration. But it seems the bike analogy works well in this instance. Actually, it was the exact same anology that I was given when I was curious about the effects of different gear ratios. If it works, use it... ;-)

Snake is also right about the shifter, you'll definately want to put in an after market shifter (Steeda Tri-Ax or Pro 5.0) to take full advantage of your gears...
