What is the best RPM's to run in3rd gear for long distances on a stock 93 CBR 600?

 

I'm confused. Why don't you just run in 6th gear for long distances?

 

haha what? that makes noo sense at all. maybe he's got one of those rare 3 spd F2's?!

 

Me too ! What are you really asking here ?

 

WTF are you asking again? I mean, long distances? Just put that bitch in 6th and roll.......

 

maybe he just doesnt know better. as far as gas mileage goes, you want to be in the highest gear possible without lugging the engine. so if you're moving long distance, and you can upshift, do it.

 

I was askedwhat RPM's should you use on in town driving,the guy is new at riding and it kind of confusedme because I just listen to the engine but he wants to know.Hedoesn't want to be too high but he doesn't want to bog it down in the next gear.

 

i personally shift in 6th if im gonna be on any road over 35mph cruising...but thats just me.

 

Thanks, for the info I'll let him know.

 

whenever i'm running it hard i'll try to stay in a low gear high rpm's for power...but if i'm just cruising i'll use the recommended shift points for best gas mileage...if i need the power i can alwayz downshift
