Buzzzzzt-Thump!!!!! (gearing...)

[Nate Stuart]

Increase the gearing of your 200q??? Didn't I see the word hill in there?
Why would you want to up the already tall gearing unless you are doing a
*lot* of higway travel? I really like the gearing of the 5ktq/200q on the
highway, seems a perfect range for cruising comfort and passing grunt when
needed. However I really wouldn't want the thing geared _any_ taller for in
town and back-country roads, lower if anything....

Just my non-highway frequenting opinion,
