Hey Bud, hope all is well. I have no particular confidence in my speedo.
Probably not much chance in the next few days, but I'll time a 10 mile
stretch of mile markers and see how close it is.

Those RPM seen a little high for that speed. My gages read 3000 RPM and
80 MPH on the way to Portland and back. And if I remember right I was
right around 2600 RPM going 75 MPH.
I'm pretty sure my speedo is right cause I timed myself between mile
markers and calculated my speed and it came out right on every time
(amazing the things you'll do to pass the time out on the road).
Wonder what others get? Listers, how bout it. What do yours read with
OD kicked in at those speeds.
