I do get up to fifth gear and it feels like I've got loads of rpms for a 6th gear.

Interesting, I'm not sure if there were any changes to the gearing or not. I can't imagine how much low-end you must have if you can only pull 40!!

Here's the DVX with the fenders removed! Looks pretty good w/o the fronts, but I like them all on the best.

If your burning oil you need to re-ring your piston the lower ring is letting oil up into the cylinder. Or just bore it out and put Do you foul plugs quickly? I have no clue about the short but I think that might work.
