:When riding single I only felt the need to leave 6th if I was on a steep incline and traveling at less than 50 mph.  When taking one of my offspring for a ride, 5th is sometimes needed to maintain highway speeds if heading into a stiff headwind or going up an incline.  In 4th the bike will accelerate smartly up steep inclines. Just keep in mind that close ratio transmissions are meant to be shifted.
