nvrhme, where in NH are you from? I live right on the border in WRJ, VT If it were me I would change out to gear cams. Not only would it help your 95, it would eliminate any tensioner issues. It is simple to do and you can buy/rent/borrow/fabricate the tools to do a good job. Let me know if you need any help.

Try the andrews 26g you will love them for riding two up. The low end power is great. I stayed with the stock 88 and went 26gs with a sert and supertrapp 2x1 got 90 tq and 80hp

RE: should I gear up?
If you are talking about going to 3:37 gears I like the gear in mine. You need to change compensator gear and clutch basket. I feel it is a good improvment especially if you ride 2 up alot. The affect on mileage will be minamal compared to the increase in torque.
