I agree - I wouldn't recommend it for everyone, but for me it gives me much
faster starts (ask anybody that rides behind me) and lets me use 2-4 for
the twisties instead of 1-3.
As someone else mentioned, one downfall is the decreased fuel economy,
although even with the reduction, I can still hit 200 miles, so I am happy.
