    Rpm`s

    what rpm`s are you 750 owners turning at 50mph?

    if my tach is accurate, and it's certainly possible that it's not, I sit around 3500, maybe 3750 at 50 mph. don't know if thats what it's supposed to be or not, though it does seem a bit high to me considering that around 65, where most of my cruising takes place, it's around 4500, maybe 4750. hope it helps, Dominick......

      Greetings,
      I had the same question when I bought my 1981 650 L. I thought I was reving too fast at the time. My 650 ( for what its worth) revs at about 5000-5500 rpm at about 50 mph. I was lead to believe this is normal and the bike likes it there so I'm happy!!

        I got an 83 GS650GD, just ressurected, I'm running 5200 and I SWEAR from a stalling idle of 1000 that its off by 300-400 so logically I think I'm at 4600-4800 and I think THATS high and wish I can gear down the 5th. I also know this high rpm is normal but..... would like a 3500@65mph gear to put in...
