This is the fastest I've every gone, but it kinda
scared the $h*t out of me. Is this normal. The bad part is I'd
probably gone faster but I couldn't get my left foot to change
gears and redlined 4th. Oh well

Yes, It is a little unnerving the first time. Take it easy and build up your comfort level.

The not being able to shift thing was your brain's way of telling you to slow down.

Be careful. It is when you start seeing things in slow motion that it really becomes scary. 150mph is plently fast don't push yourself beyond what you wnat to do FOR YOU...

I topped mine out the other day. Hit the rev. lim. at 175 with the gear change(16/42), I think my tach was showing 10,500rpms. Was 180 or so before I changed the gearing. This was with a yellow box that was calculated by a GPS.
