Metro, not ridden it much at all with the snow and rain, need to get the fairing on. I haven't topped off the rigged 5 gallon tank once yet. I'm focused on the MPG instrumentation at the moment, but will probably put the 37 tooth on and see what it drives like. Hopefully I can get to a point where I can do an A-B-A test on it and:
1 land on the "A" that is more fuel efficient
2 not take tankfuls to complete testing

Ryland: thanks for the restriction in the line tip, is 5" of vacuum normal?
