Catbird,
After riding my 13 for several months I thought it really needed a 6th gear to slow down RPMs out on the road. I've changed both front and rear sprockets (+1 front, -2 rear) and that lowered top gear RPM 10.5%. The 6th gear on the 14s slows it down 20%. My bike is acceptable with my new gears but I'd still rather have a 6 speed. I prefer the looks of the 13 CB and that along with my extensive mods has prevented me from trading. All the best.
