Don't over-think this. There are too many variables. Listen to your motor; it'll tell you when it's time to shift.

When riding hard, I've pushed 3rd up to 90 and 100 before shifting up to 4th many times. Don't worry about it. Listen to the bike and it will tell you when to kick it up.

Wow big daddy those are some pretty impressive numbers . Sounds like your bike runs like a run away freight train.

Default Thanks for the good advice!

You are right with the sound. Let it scream to you then shift.
Going back to the basics.
Happy 4th.
