Both my FZS1000 and R1250R will happily cruise at 50mph in 6[sup]th[/sup]. At 30mph the FZS is still happy in 6[sup]th[/sup], but the BMW being a twin wants to be in 3[sup]rd[/sup].
My diesel Yeti will be happier in 5[sup]th [/sup]at 50mph-the turbo will no longer be producing any boost at this speed in 6th, so the engine would be outside its normal operating range.
