Mike is on the right track here.  Optimize the gearing first.  It's
the cheapest performance gain available.  I'd recommend at least one
tooth smaller on the countershaft sprocket.  I currently run a 45/18.
During last week's TRAP RAT Fest gathering in Baker City, OR, I
averaged ~50mpgUS over 1300 miles of 'spirited but sane' riding - 600
of which was 2-up.
