This is completely normal. It's called cross-chaining...
Sorry what I mean was the fastest set of gears. My bike won't let me shift all the way to opposite gears. So when my chain is on both far right gears.. it hits the derailleur.

Thanks for the tips on the brakes Luke I'll have to check those out.

And I'm replacing my grips A.S.A.P. it looks like someone tried to eat them (Not me! k well a little).
I had no idea there are name brand grips and seats though til I started looking on this forum.

Junkyard, I'm just used to the car street tuner scene... where people say "I wanna put a turbo on my non-turbo neon, how should I go about it?" and the usual answer is "Trade it in for a better car" or "Sell it and buy a SRT-4 neon" But as far as bikes go... people seem to admire almost any bike that isn't from x-mart.. or trek 820s from what I see.
