I have found the quickest times for mine at WSID were with it left in D and the Econ swith left on. when on the road i leave it in D most of the time, b ut when i play on hills both going up and down i use all forward gears, 1st is great for tight hairpins. That and the fact i love the sound of mine between 3 and 5g. Sounds OH SO SWEET
