Re: bogus but good advice about varying

Varying the engine speed in fully automatic mode means varying the bike speed but if you switch to manual mode, you can run different RPM ranges at about the same speeds.

That's a good tip, Al.

I'm doing something similar by switching back and forth between "Normal" and "Power" mode any time I have a long stretch at steady speed. That'll vary the RPM by around 1000 at any given speed.
