Hello, I recently purchased my first Harley. I have had many bikes but just recently got my first Harley and love her! The only few problems I have are that the gas cap cover keeps coming open, which is not that big of a deal and shes just too wide open when cruising on the highway. Shes a 88ci 5 speed and at highway speeds shes just over 3k rpm and going through gas like politician with tax money. I severely want to upgrade the transmission to a six speed to help her relax on the highway, but Im unsure on what would be best. Any recommendations and reasoning would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all in advanced! Love yall in the motorcycle community!
