bad mpg, high rpms \ speedo and oil?
Re: bad mpg, high rpms \ speedo and oil?
Not sure you have the issue you think. 85 kph is not 44mph. It's 52 mph and 3000 rpm is just right with a 32" tall tire. Hope that helps.

You've misread. My speedo reads 85kph while I'm doing 44mph... I'd have no complaint if it was 52mph as it should be.Stekay wrote:Not sure you have the issue you think. 85 kph is not 44mph. It's 52 mph and 3000 rpm is just right with a 32" tall tire. Hope that helps.
So how many RPMS should I be at for ~60mph ?
