Re: What's a comfortable model a speed?
I've had it cruising nicely at 67 down country Hyw 18 here in Oklahoma, but mostly I stay 45-50
All stock, no OD

Got the gearrs turning on this one, going to check my gear ratio.
Might not be as stock as I think.

Check your speedometer with a GPS too.

Re: What's a comfortable model a speed?
I was quite surprised with mine on a 400+ mile trip this past weekend. When the speedometer reads 50, the GPS says 57.

Re: What's a comfortable model a speed?
Not sure, but didn't you change tire sizes awhile back? If so, probably need a different gear ratio feeding the speedo.
