Normal shift points.
Well for i change im going to drive normal now, What are your "normal" shift points? I usually shift at like 2400-2500 rpm.
Oh yeah. GAS PRICES BLOW!!!!! :verypissed: |
2,500-2,800rpms to keep it in the power band.
|
yea,^^^^^ 2500 to 3000
|
thats normal shifting? 2500-3000 seems high, im trying to save little gas!
hey spike, when u plan on going to speed world? |
usually aroud 2500, but sometimes as low as 2,000rpms. Gears 1-4 should drop around 400 rpms when you shift, and when you go into 5th, it will drop around 700 rpms. I usually drive around in which ever gear puts me at or slightly below 1500 rpms. For me that would be 5th gear.
|
If I'm not trying to pick up speed much I'll shift around 2100. If I'm turning onto the highway or merging onto the interstate I'll shift at around 2500-3000.
|
I shift when the car needs to be. That could be 5,000 rpm or 1,500 rpm. There is no set shift points in a manual, you shift when it feels right, period. This is why a manual is better than an auto; variable stall and shift points.
Oh, and by the way, I never though I'd say this but I love NJ. $3.75/gal AND you don't have to pump it. |

ahhh yes, 40+ miles to the gallon city 65+ highway and still able to go 160 mph with 0-60 mph in 2.9 sec. and the 1/4 mile in 10.53 sec. Honestly I ride as much as i can, the mustang sits a lot with price of gas, I usually just get the car out on weekends now. Plus when I rains I like to drive the old 2.9L ranger that has 180k on it:D

ride safe man, and to let you know insurance is pretty high at your age Im 22 have been riding for 3 years and my insurance is just now starting to drop. And if this is your first bike I recommend taking a motorcycle safety course. Oh and the 08 gsxrs have those powermode switches you can turn the power up and down from mode A,B,C
