73 H2 with Johns reeds that is so smooth and torquey, great bike on the hiway. It has 16/40 gearing and just chugs along. True testament to how good JA's reeds really are.

Fun to read that ride report on the double, Thad.

When I installed JA reeds in my H2 it took only a few weeks to decide to switch to 16/44 sprockets from the stock 15/47. It's great to have the engine going 3400 rpm at 65 mph and I still rarely downshift from 5th at anything over 45 mph.
