Well, most of my commute is the same as before, no problems there, it has just been increased a tad bit. The tire pressure is .4 bars above manufacturers recommendations (2.5 bar, won't put it higher than that because there are quite a few potholes here and there and don't want to put too much stress on the suspension.

I guess I'll just have to see/find the "sweet spot" for this engine.
