[QUOTE="bobkyle2, post: 94808, member: 579"] 5th will allow the engine to turn over easier.... Ever tried to push the bike in 1st gear compared to 5th... This is why when you drive a manual transmission automobile... You put it in 1st.. Not 5th....If you put it in 5th... A normal person could push the vehicle and it would turn the engine over... Put if you put it in 1st... It the gear ratio/to compression ratio is much lower... Think of it as switching your front sprocket with your rear sprocket.. And then trying to ride it with the engine propelling it... [/QUOTE]
