FWIW, I went to a 42T rear gear after adding my Akopovic muffler. This gives the bike “longer legs” so you won’t need to shift to 3rd gear t the end of an intersection, but acceleration will be tempered a bit. The bike won’t rev as high on the highway, but it also will give up a couple of MPH (lower top speed) since you’re dropping the bike further away from it’s power peak, and aerodynamic drag increases exponentially the faster you go.
