That vibration at high speeds/RPMs in 4th and 5th gears is why I put on the 19 tooth sprocket for highway riding. I installed it just prior to the trip to the Baxter Cycle Rally in Marne Iowa. My brother, on a 1050 Tiger, and I averaged 84 mph on the trip back to Kansas City. My feet didn't get numb from the vibration and I wasn't looking for the 6th gear.
