It might be a good idea to... not insult the people you are asking for help.
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

Seems you don't have that much experience at all if you can't figure out that making your 6th gear taller won't do anything for your top speed (except maybe bring it down if you drop below peak power). The gearing is set the way it is for a reason, the suzuki guys didn't just pull it out of a hat. Your bike will attain top speed in either 5th or 6th at which point it will be at peak power.

Anyway, as mentioned there are much better ways to spend your money for performance mods. If getting better acceleration AND higher top speed were as simple as a gearing change, then suzuki would have been on that like a fat kid on a twinky.
