The thought of 4mph extra maybe more than i can handle.

To kind to the bike to rev it over 9000rpm and on mine the power plummets anyway.I beleive altering the cam timing will let them rev more or for longer but not sure if its worth it.8500 in 4th and into 5th seems to work for me.

I,ve tried Skids gearing so far to be spot on for me[Later 600ss]. Thanks Kev

Andrew the original speeds were based on Phil_h's Calculations, I just tweeked it so that at max power (8000rpm) my bike on standard road gearing (15/41) would be doing 120mph as it makes things easier for me to work out. This way every 1000rpm = 15mph which seems about right according to the speedo
