Loving My 2009 SD

Still getting to know my SD, but enjoying the relationship

But I am a bit surprised a 999cc engine can't make much use of at least fourth and fifth gears below around 4000rpm.

I'll persist for a while but am considering a gearing change to 17/41. Will I need a longer chain at the same time? Currently the bike is at 17/38.

Thanks.

The 09 should have a 16T standard. Mine did
Also with a proper map you should be able to run your bike down to at least 2600rpm in 6th gear.
