What RPMs' at 60mph

[bleeble]

Seems to me Greg O's speedo or tach must be faulty, If he's running 4000 @ 60 (15mph per 1000rpm), should read 2000 @ 30, 3000 @ 45, 4000 @ 60, & 5000 @ 75. Or am I missing something???

Dunno, but mine runs 5000 @ 60 and about 6000 @ 75. Seems the ratio works for my bike, but only at higher speeds. Try going 35 in 5th and you'll see what I mean.

rode it in the quarter mile yesterday just for fun and did a very unimpressive 14.5 sec at 89 mph.

I love this. Good for you - life's too short.

Drag strips here still have the occassional 'run what ya brung' nights. It's hilarious some of the things that people will try to 'punch' down the 1/4 mile. Very entertaining. \\/

I use the word punch loosely (tongue in cheek) because they usually have very little punch. I've seen guys drag race stock VW Beatles.

Hah! You should try racing with my first car. A 1982 Mercedes 240D. 0-60 in a whopping 22 seconds! :-D
