You mean what RPM/MPH? That all depends on what you're doing. If you're commuting, you want to shift as low as possible for MPGs. If you're racing, you want to shift as high as possible for max power.

How fast do you shift? As fast as possible. Time between gears = loss of efficiency/mpg/speed.

At what MPH/Kmph.. what is MPG?

Depending on conditions, I can shift anywhere from 4.5k up to about the rev limiter. Not concerned about saving gas, this thing is cheap enough to not worry about gogo juice much. I just do what feels "appropriate".

I don't think about gas. I get 75ltr every month from my bank. but Rs. 74/ ltr. in India. Mango men can't afford it(added unnecessary extra line).
