You didn't know me in my mid 30s. I would sometimes wring my Panhead stroker out to 130+ MPH. Had it float the front wheel like a dirt bike over hill crests at 110+ MPH That was in the really fat part of the power band in 4th gear,As I seem to be the only one left awake here Dan (sorry, Brit humour). I'll at least endorse your last point:
'No single FDR is going to be ideal in all situations.'
Though the line: 'What if you are riding on a twisty road that allows speeds in the 90-105 MPH range? With a 20t sprocket you would be over revving in 3rd gear' beggars the question: Why not change up into fourth?
Those conditions don't (sensibly) exist in the UK outside of track days...
But then you would be at a disadvantage in FDR over the 22t in 3rd gear.Though the line: 'What if you are riding on a twisty road that allows speeds in the 90-105 MPH range? With a 20t sprocket you would be over revving in 3rd gear' beggars the question: Why not change up into fourth?

OopsOn the contrary, I know it may be hard for you to grasp but not everyone that responded here has the same opinion as you. You don't seem to be able to accept anyone's opinion that doesn't agree with yours.
