Not your imagination, Scott.  Even the '99's with their 18t
countershaft sprocket will hit 50+ mph in 1st and the 2000's &
later have a 19t!  I've backdated mine to the 18t and am much
happier with the result.  We installed a 17t on a friend's and
while it gives a 6th gear cruise rpm about equal to my 5th, the
performance improvement (can you say wheelies?) is significant.
