Better Gearing!!?? I've always thought the Ambo 4 speed worked
well in almost every situation. 1st and 2nd were my city gears, 3rd and
4th were for the highway. I am not convinced a taller 4th or 5th would
do the bike any good, but maybe I ride too slow?
I've never ridden an Eldorado. What do you owners of both Ambo's
and Eldo's say? The 750 4-speed is properly matched? Or the 850 5-speed
is just so much better?
BTW - does anyone have experience with Suzuki Re5 rotary bikes?

Getting an Eldo in the first place might be easier . You get a 5
speed
and better gearing in the bargain. Then again the Ambo is a
pretty good
bike as it is .
The best way to get an 850 however is most likely STARTING with
an 850
.
