Also made a 16t front sprocket & will try it with 38t rear.

Did anything else change apart from the transmission ratio and the height?
(I'm late, but interested: my girlfriend has a GV250 with the same engine, and sometimes I ride that bike too, though less willingly by the minute. Heck, the last time I fell with my own was at winter, on ice. Now I could fall with hers. Way too different to my Teresa, it distracts me very much...
But we'll finally have a taller ratio on the GV250: just a 15t front sprocket, but we fly low

edit. I retired Ciliegia here, but shiNIN (my girlfriend) keeps logging her FE at cleanmpg (you can switch units):
